I just bought a 93 MTX that needed a clutch, got the car for 700 bucks, it has 129 thousand miles, but the thing wont idle. When its cold it idles fine but when it warms up it just bounces all over the place and then dies. I have already done an idle reset precedure, then i cleaned the idle air control motor, does any one have any idea of what else i could do.

Could be one or many things. For starters, run your KOEO and KOER tests, then check the codes.
