Not too exciting but i got my car running. It sat all winter and wasn't touched. When i started it up the other day it would only run for a little and would just die.. if i gave it gas it would die.. if i touched anything it would die.. haha So i took the fast idle thermo valve off and cleaned it and reset it.. also the IAC valve (if thats what it is called) off and it was nearly plugged full of carbon.. so i cleaned that. I wish i had pictures but i didn't have a camera with me. So after all that and it was reassembled.. the same problem lol.. so i decided to forget about it and get some other stuff done. i put my dash and all that back in hooked up some grounds inside.. so i tried startign it again and what do you know.. the car ran.. but now it almost stalls when it comes down from reving.. here is a video.. (Also note the whistle when i open the throttle.. don't know what it is.. )
