Just as the title says - When the car hasnt been running for a few hours, I start it up and it seems to hunt for a good idle RPM. At first, right after start, the RPM's go up to around 1500 then drop down to around 600 and the car sounds like it is going to die. The voltmeter even falls down because the RPM's are so low. Then it shoots back up towards 17-1800 for a second or two and then back down to around 1300. After that, it seems happy. I have replaced the IAC valve already and it still does it. I disconnected the battery to reset the computer and it didnt help. Any suggestions to where I should go from here? I would rather troubleshoot than throw more parts at it. Thanks for the help.
