I have been searching for the feeler gauge size to set the stop on the throttle that is for the ECU to consider it closed. My manual shows for the 4 cyl model to be .03 but does not mention it for the V6 vg33er. I have this problem where when I put it in any gear (Auto) the RPMS drop 200 RPMs. SO in drive the RPMs is 600 instead of 750 - 800 while idling in drive. I tryed to close the throttle more after opening it to see if I could get the RPMS up in drive but realized that it was the wrong thing to do. Now when I close it more to a certain point the throttle sticks real bad forcing me to stamp on the peddle to start off from a stop. I can adjust it to the point where it does not stick and I'm back to the 750 in Neutral or park and 550-600 in drive. Any ideas? I know about the adjustment for the idle sscrew on the IACV body. It does not change the while in drive idle. The FICD works but don't know about the AAC working. Is that supposed to idle up the RPMS for drive?So there are a couple of questions here. Any ideas?

It is about a 20 step process to correctly set the idle
speed, which is in park not drive, which will lower the
RPM, so I don't see a reason for your concern. The biggest
concern is cleaning the throttle blade and bore for proper
operation.
