Welcome! it could be a lose spark plug to a bad Mass air flow senor, or a bad idle air control valve.

what is it doing? is it run rough when you start her up in the morning, or is she start giving you Griff when you get some RPM's going?


Do you have the rave manual?

The dealer will over charge you for any repair fyi

Its usually fine in the morning. Its just sometimes in the afternoon when I drive it. Right when I start it runs like its gonna stall but if I give it some gas its fine, and fine when im driving. And its intermittent. No lights on, only 135000 miles.

And I just found the RAVE manual, but still trying to figure the whole thing out.

Yea I dont want to take it to the dealer, thats why im asking on here haha..

Any Ideas?

What octane gas are you using? it could be the TPS*throttle position * IACV *Idle Air control Valve* or it could be a bad vacuum hose.
