Ok. Im not sure if this is even a problem or not... The problem is that the idle takes a long time to kick back down. Whether the car is warmed up or not (happens all the time). It will sit at the normal (little bit under 1000rpm)... then when i give some gas, it jumps up as it should but sticks at about almost 2000 and goes down EVER SO SLOWLY. (makes for some poor gas milage) I just dont know what it is. I am not a car guy as you can tell. Sorry. if anyone can assist me with finding out what the problem is, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
