My car was flooded from katrina, i changed the ignition coils, wireset, plugs, fuel filter, fuel pump, and air filter but yet my car still under-idles... is there something i'm overlooking that can cause this?


BTW.... i was wondering where the pvc filter is located, if any one knows that would help out alot.

Clean out the TPS, pop in a spare MAP sensor if you have one around.

Does the car die or just idle low?  A simple idle relearn may be all that's necessary, but you never know with flooding.  

What year/model/engine is this?  Knowing what the car is helps in helping to get it running again.

You could have mung/junk in the passage the IAC sits in.
I would take off and clean the entire throttle body assembly.
