Sounds like a MAF problem. I had that problem like 4 months ago. When your car idles like that, does pushing the gas stall it out quicker? I would have that checked out or it will inevitably stall out again!

No harm meant, 'twas simply comical. None of us know it all and we're all here to learn. And yes, at times chuckle

Anybody want a REAL laugh? I was on the Altima forum earlier (gf's car)...OMG...I can't even explain how useless that is.

Sounds like a bad connection to the IAC motor, I had a cracked connector that got wet and it would want to idle at 400 rpms at best.
