they were probably talking about the IAC (Idle Air Control). its on the TB. how does it run when you driving at slow speed with just putting it in gear and not touching the throttle any? does it want to die or does it "idle drive" good?

the car when it wants to just sitting it will try to die but when im in the higher rpm's it doesnt want to die just real low rpms it has alot of bogging down at first and i know the headgasket isnt gone and does the same thing when it is in gear
