[QUOTE="Torch10th, post: 4713327, member: 15703"] Sounds like it just needs some TLC and a good tune up. THe hunting idle could be a slight vacuum leak, so check the vacuum hoses and replace any that are worn or cracked. Then start with a good tune up. Clean the MAF, new fuel filter, change spark plugs, clean air filter. Unplug the batter while your doing this to reset the long and short term fuel trims. Change the oil and oil filter. Use a quality lubricant and stick with that brand. GM synchromesh in the transmission. 01 Cobra's have the finicky TR3650 transmission and don't like to be overly full. I believe 3.5 quarts is recomended in that tranny, but check for yourself as I'm not 100% that's the correct amount. Finally, you might try running some sea-foam through the engine. This will help clean up the intake and burn out any carbon deposits. Once all that's done, go give it an italian tune up (hot rod the crap out of it if that didn't make any sense to you). [/QUOTE]
