Default Can someone help me out with an IAC problem?
The car is stalling and going up to 2k rpm as soon as I turn it on. Which IAC motor do I buy for my 94' z28 to fix this? Halp.

Did it just randomly start doing this? Or has some work been done and now you have this problem...If you start it and the car idles down then yes/maybe IAC if it never idles down I say it is a vacuum leak somewhere that is why I ask if any maintenance or work has recently been done.

It's weird. I just purchased the car in August, and when I tested it out it didn't do anything like it does to me now. And I took it out for a 20 minute highway drive. My dad thinks that it's happening because the car sat for a while, but it's been happening ever since it came into my driveway.

Well does it eventually idle down to normal? Like around or less then 1000 rpm's I guess that is the most important question
