so i did some research, and tried a couple things a few guys on here told me...my throttle cable is just fine so i know thats no twhy im idling high, but i did read any vacuum leaks or air entering the system after the map senser could cause high idle along with leaking head gasket correct? if so i noticed i m dribbling a littel coolant out of my motor somehwere, could be the house spout where the upper radiator hose connects to, but its looking like its coming out the corner of my head...could the head gasket have gone bad from sitting for so long? i never took the head off the motor so im fairly sure that should be fine, but im so frustrated that i finally after two weeks got it running, and now i find im dribbling coolant and idleing at like 2500rpm or around there, i have yet to spray for leaks around the intake and tb but its definitly on the to do list, i just can understand how i keep haveing so many issues...i fix one thing and 10 more issues arise...im about ready to sell this piece of shit, i have spent over a year and a half trying to get it done right and alot of fucking money....i know this kinda work isnt easy, but fuck, its like pulling teeth without anethesia....im just stumped as to what would be causing all my issues....if it turns out the hg is bad im probably just going to sell the car.....or burn the fucker down.....its either that or i strip the car down to nothing and start AGAIN...and i dont want to...
