yea you guys have helped me alot. i have been a member for a month now i guess. i just did a tune up and replaced a 100$ sensor on my ride and it runs like a dream, but it still has a problem it had before i took it in for a tune up. occasionally my vehicle will act like it is wanting to die in gear. it has tried to one time in reverse and like 7 times in drive. thankfully, it hasnt died yet but it has dropped below 500 rpm. it seems to me to only do it when my foot is not on the gas and am just letting it drift. once it warms up it doesnt seem to want to do it any more. for its mileage this vehicle is in excellent condition and i want to fix this problem before it creates a more serious problem. i hope you guys can diagnose this problem like you have done for me in the past. Thank you for your time
