Here is a link showing how my car sounds/looks. My car has been idling low like this for quite a while. There's what seems to sound like a leak in the engine bay but not sure where it's coming from. The car stalls and the car bogs at low RPMS when the car is warmed up. Any help?

Check your iacv. Should be located near intake manifold. Its adjustable with a screw driver. Try that adjust slow and see the difference

double check your timing to see correct, 20 degrees, if that is good, trying cleaning your iacv then adjust it to bring up the idle. you can hear the hiss from the major vacuum leak in the video. buy some carb cleaner and spray it on all the hoses when the engine is on, if theres a crazy change in idle.. thats where your leak is occurring. if i was you, i would replace all the vacuum lines if they havnt been replaced already. check your intake pipes and connectors for cuts or damage.
