rough idle

Jun 14, 2006 2 Replies

I found my idle problem and hate to say that it was a dumb mistake on my part, I had # 4&6 plug wires crossed. Although I replaced one wire at a time, not making excuses, it was a 2nd hand car. I still have a problem with both cooling fans coming on as soon as the key is turned on. Any help out there? Thanks!



We've all done dumb stuff like that, no biggie. As far as the cooling system, it may be something as simple as a fan relay. The system is designed to operate continuously if there is an open in the control portion of the circuit (bad relay, blow fuse, etc) so the car wont overheat.

Is the AC or defrost on?
