I have a 93 cruiser that has had a problem with a low idle (200-400rpm) that has slowly progressively over time gotten worse. At speed, it ran smooth otherwise. Since the problem progressively worsened, and at times would cut out, I took it in to my mechanic who thought it was a mass air flow meter, I replaced it with a salvage one, since they are $750 vs $100, and it really didn't help much other than it doesn't cut out. It still has a low idle and runs a bit rougher up to 1600rpm. I then took to the nearest toyota certified mechanic, who thought it is the IAC and intake hose and he wants $600 to replace.
Here is my deal, I came in looking at similar problems that others have had, and it looks to me to be either a wiring harness issue around the EGR vs. the throttle body needing cleaned and tuned and hoses replaced.
What do you all think and do you experts out there have any other recommendations, like would you spend the $600 on the IAC/hose??
Thanks a mil in advance
