Could have a clogged IACV.

Hows your fuel economy, notice any decrease? Have you read your plugs yet?

could also be your o2 sensor, also could be your engine running really rich, my car was doing the same thing when i was using a mugen chip, which made it run rich as hell..

o2 senor was changed this summer due to etest, not running any chip or anything

havent checked the IACV

althought was thinking of taking full throttle apart and cleaning it

where is the IACV located and what would i clean it with??

oh and pluges where changed about 12 months ago

remove the intake tube, turn on the car on the top firewall side of the tb there should be a little port. Put your finger over it, see what happens.

Oh.. and it's not your o2, don't worry lol

it could also be a leaky injector. my buddy's jeep had similar symptoms, all 6 injectors were found to be leaking.

My car does that too. When you start the car dont touch the gas or anything mind you let it warm up. Im pretty sure its your IACV just cleanit with some carb cleaner. Valveseals?
