Out of the shop...finally!!!!

After 3 weeks of anticipation my 97 Sidekick (4 dr) is fixed. A new belt and an ignition coil. But my post is for a question I have concerning the idle. Why does the RPM drop to like 300 when I come to a stop? It's always did this and I forgot to have the mechanic check it. Sometimes when it's idling low the car shakes a little. Is this something I can fix?

Search the forum for IAC valve.

I'm surprised it will continue to run when it drops to 300 RPM. Shconer, could something be wrong with the tach as well as a IAC adjustment?

Good luck jakehorror

When my IAC was bad it was able to idle that low but its very unstable.

yeah, I had the same IAC problem on my first Zuki, also a '97 but with the 1.6L engine, jake has the 1.8L if I'm not mistaken.
