hey guys im new to the whole 240 scene and all. so i bought a 1991 240sx coupe, and it was bogging out on me and the idle would keep on dropping. So i did a little research and read that it might be the IACV so after reading a few posts i cleaned it out and started up the car and it still kept on happening. So then i read some more and some were saying it could be the throttle body, so after reading again i cleaned it out and it the problem stopped for like a week. But then lastnight as i parked in my neighborhood the problem started again. so im not sure what to do now, its not consistent like it used to be. every once and a while the rpms will drop on me. i dont know what the problem could be! please help out a fellow 240 owner!
