ok so this is the problem the car will idle just fine when its cold but when it gets to operating temprature the rpms will this a bitget really low and die or it will jump back up to 2000rpm to keep it from dieing ive researched this a bit and from what ive seen i think its either the iac valve or the egr valve or any number of different things so any help would be great
 
What?

the rpms will this a bitget really low

I would agree with you. You've answered your own question.
 
Locate your throttle body, clean it. somewhere on the throttle body, there will be an idle air control valve. It has a wiring harness on it. Unscrew it from the v body, clean it with Gum-out spray, and re-install it. Use Power Tune, if you can get it (Mercury boat stores have it). Locate your engine temperature sensor. Replace it with a Borg Warner unit. Go to a power wash, and clean the entire engine bay, especially the space between the radiator and the A/C condenser. To get things working even better, install a set of Bosch Platinum single oints, or Nippondenso Iridium spark plugs. These units are 50% more efficient than the factory plugs, and will increase power and MPG's. Good Luck!!
