I have a 93 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, I replaced all of the vacuum lines with all new rubber hoses and fittings, the idle got better, it was at almost 2 rpm, I have it down to a little above 1 rpm, but its suppose to rest at like.7 to.9 rpm I think, and im racking my brains out trying to figure out what the hell the problem is, I replaced the fuel filter, all new gaskets around the engine, nothing leaks. Recent tune up, I mean it runs pretty good for 180,000 miles, but can a bad egr valve have something to do with the idle, or a idle control valve, I dont know, im stuck, if you could point me int he right direction as to how I can get my idle down to where it should be, it would be greatly appeciated, thanks.

Hi svt28103, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

The idle speed is computer controlled no adjustment required. Try cleaning and testing the idle air control motor on the throttle body assembly and also test the throttle position sensor
