hello first check your idle with the car running foot on brake see were your rpm reading is if your below 500rpm check your label underhood for your curb idle setting second see if theres a adjustment screw you can increase were your gas cable lever rest against your set screw underhood if you feel confident enough remove your iac motor idle air control valve if the bore were the end of the pintle extracts out to close has varnish builup our carbon it will stick creating vacuum leak type senario causing stalling rough idle sometimes even no start conditions good luck

There is a module called "idle limiter". Sounds as if it is bad!

Thank you. It is not possible to help you with such limited information. A leak can be caused by many things depending on where it is leaking. A head gwsket can leak of course, but that happens INSIDE causing the coolant to be burned in the cylinderhead, whci results in white smoke. Most leaks are either in one of the hoses, the radiator, or the radiator cap. I have personally never seen a head leak to the outside. I hope this helps, but as I stated, the information is very limited. Thank you for trusting FixYa.com to help get you going!
