Code P0505, idle problems?

Hi,

Oftentimes, an erratic idle is caused by an engine vacuum leak. A leak allows unmetered air to enter the combustion chamber and lean the air/fuel mixture.

Here is where we need to start. I need you to check for any possible leaks. Here is a link that explains how to check:

Let me know what you find.

Take care,
