i've just found out lately that my air silde valve was being bypassed by the previous owner.

After i clean my TB, replaced the vacumm hoses, i noticed that the car idles roughly and at time, almost dies off. RPM stays below 500. But after the engine warms up, the rpm raises to 750 and the idling is good.

The only solution i know is to reconnect back the air slide valve.

Is there any other alternatives?
