Subject: What's Normal Idle
IP: Logged

Message:
Hey guys, I've noticed that everytime I start the engine that the idle is really low (approx:800-900rpm.) Is this usually right or is there something wrong. It always sounds like the car is never on because it sounds so smooth whereas the explorer I have just sounds so rough. Maybe I can get some help?
