I fixed my idling problem I've been having where I would either be idleing really low or ideling about 1500 RPMs. I replaced my idle control motor and that seemed to do the trick. I got it from www.50resto.com, but I'm sure it can be purchased anywhere.

Thanks! I was afraid that it might have been something more serious and EXPENSIVE!

Ha ha! Yeah, but when you think about the gas the car just eats up idling at 2000 RPMs, in the end it works it self out. It may take a few months, but it'll work itself out.
