I had a problem with my cars Idle set to fast. Now it gets to where it jerks and barely wants to crank without giving it gas. I was wondering how do I adjust the idle or if it sounds like something else is wrong.

Hello, I'd clean the throttle-body, and check the IAC system.

Can you check for codes? Some of the national brand autostores will check codes for free.
