No problem man. I hope all goes well for you. Try starting your car and leave It at Idle. Maybe It'll correct itself
I'm sure someone will chime In soon and help you out. Come on guys where you at!

I don't think its anything serious but it is one of those irritating things that could be almost anything. Like mentinoed above, the MAP whack or MAP cleaning could help. Cleaning the Idle control vavle and throttle body could help. A vacuum leak will cause those issues as well, dunno what kind of connections relate to your intake system. Bad gas will cause that too, if you have water in your tank from a bad gas station fill or just condensation from sitting. If you had lots of rain in your area it is possible that the gas station you use got water seepage into their tanks, that is not uncommon where underground tanks are faulty - many stations out there like this. Burn off the old gas, fill with new gas at a different location, put in some water remover and fuel injector cleaner. Lastly, re-set the ecu.

Highly doubt its the gas, because i filled up before the storm. so im still on that tank of gas before it even started raining.

Also it s 2002..
