If I come to a stop and sit there with the car runnig for a min. It drops in rpms from about 900 to 700 and stays there ( almost lik eit get a load on it but amp gauge doesn't move) and sometimes I hear a rattle noise like from the intake or valve cover. It has had a Mass air conversion on it for years.
