Hey guys so tomorrow is the first time I'm going to check out a 1995 base model 240SX for me to buy I pretty much know what to look for but theres one problem with the car aparently it doesn't want to idle? All he says is the car just doesn't want to idle but it will drive. So I was wondering what some common problems are when it doesn't want to idle? I mean I feel like its a great deal wether engine runs or not heres some of the goodies I get with the car-Megan Coilovers-Rear Rucas-Kaaz 2Way-and some advans I feel like just that is worth the 1,000 im going to pay but any help on that engine idle problem is very helpfull thanks.

What do you mean by not want to idle? As in it is just fluctuating or just dies unless you have the foot on the gas?

Sounds like either the air reg, iacv or maf. I have an air regulator and iacv if you pick the car up. and im local
