Hi bill hust,

Help us to help yourself.

When you say rough, what do you mean? Idling rpm very high, very low or both, ie, hunting up and down?

THE RPM IS REALLY LOW HE SAYS IT ACTS LIKE IT WONTS TO DIE. WHEN GIVEN THE GAS IT STRAIGHTENS UP AND RUNS FINE.

Hi bill hust,

Ok, your idling system need some cleaning.

Use some carb cleaner to clean the throttle body, idle adjust screw and EACV and readjust the idle speed.
