I got some work done on my 1988 corsica it has 99,000 milles on it and its a 2.8 . The battery was diconected and now my idel is not working good. Some times it stalls at stop lights. It will idel fast at times and some times real low and stall. I was told a while back what to do but I can't reacall what they told me. I know its a easy fix.
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks
Mike
