Default idle problems

so recently i threw a timing idler tensioner pulley.. relaced them re timed the belt and now my idel fluctuates at dead stops and wen i slow down the idle drops to almost turning off. iv replced the iacv and that didnt fix the problem, changed spark plugs and wires, and a fuel filter. anyone know of any other problems or things i can do to make it idle normal again?

if its a vacuum leak take a can of startiong fluid or carb cleaner and spray i around in the engine and see if the idle pics up if it does pick up the idle it will show you where the leak is thats not the total answer but it may help you locate the problem

get a boost leak tester... machv.com.... that will actually tell you what is allowing air to bypass the throttle plate. If you just want to guess, check the FIAV, or get a block off plate... check the throttle shaft seals... the injector seals... the throttle body gaskets... the intake manifold gaskets... and then the vacuum lines.... if that doesn't help... I don't know what else it could be... basically check everything from the intake manifold back to the intercooler..... those are the only things that could cause an idle issue. Hope that helps brother.. have a good one.
