When my engine is idling it starts missing after a bit. Not bad, but you can definitely hear it. Also. When I press the throttle it sounds fine, but when its idling down, it misses and takes it awhile to get back to idling rpm. When the compressor for the ac is running it doesn't miss nearly as bad. It runs and pulls fine. I have haven't had any trouble with it as far as running down the highway.

Hi eternie, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

Do you have a check engine light or has flashed before this problem and when was your last tune-up?

Try cleaning out the idle air control valve/motor/ISC and test it-to include the throttle position and manifold absolute pressure sensors-also clean our the EGR and PCV valves-Let me know

I've never gotten a check engine light. I'll check all the other things and let you know. Thanks.
