low idle, squishy brakes

Post by bassplayaz06 »

so with the warmer weather, my car's been idling at around 800 rpm. this makes it kinda hard to start from a stoplight, which gets annoying. could this also cause squishy brakes, from less vacuum coming in?

I'm not sure about the GTs (2zz) but the 1zz idles at 700. 800 rpms sounds OK. Is it rough? Maybe a vac leak?

it's not rough though, and i did just change the intake gaskets. i know i put all that together right. the brakes fixed themselves somehow... idk how.
