PeaCheZ, first of all, your problem is not unique, it's a "faily common" thing to occur with the MX considering it's age. I suggest as part of a good learning process to search fro some of your potential answers since you'll learn more that way and will be a good catalyst for future problem solving.
Try searching for keywords such as "idle", "surging", "searching", "hunting", "eratic", "fluctuating" in the V6 Performance Forum.
You should come up with something like this;

Here is your original thread started 03 July - http://www.mx-3.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.ph ... ht=surging Do you mean to say that you have not followed any of the recommendations from that 2 page thread? Come on PeaCheZ, there is a bit of a burden of responsability on your part to do your part. It's nearly 2 months later and your opening post says nothing to the effect of what steps you have taken yourself to remedy your problem. It appears that there isn't much done on your part, and if so you made no mention of it in the opening post. That's something we need to go by so that we don't waste ours and your time going over something that's already been covered.
PeaChez - do a search, do some reading, go through the online manual and post back a more descriptive, detailed and perhaps a more insightfull account of what you have, what you have done, what you haven't done and what you think you need to do next. We can surely guide you in the right direction.
Again, the owness is upon yourself again, it's up to you how you approach it and how well you succeed. Good luck.
