I have a vibrating problem on my car when idling. I noticed that it only idles at about 550 rpm which I think is a little low. When I rev the engine up the vibrating goes away. Would low rpm cause a car to vibrate and if I adjusted the rpm would the vibrating go away.

WITHOUT MORE INFO ABOUT YOUR RIG---I JUST SORTA GUESSED A "GS" W/ A 6 CYLINDER......TO SHOW YOU A PART

MAY NOT MATTER---BUT THIS IS THE PART I'M REFERRING TO (CHANGE MY INFO FOR A CORRECT PART)

ANYWAY....THIS IS WHAT CONTROLS IDLE, AT LEAST WITH THE INFO I INJECTED FOR A "GS" WITH A 2.5 LITER ENGINE

IT LOOKS VERY MUCH LIKE THE ONE IN MY WIFEY'S 2003 FORD ESCAPE.....READ THIS LINK
