Another rough idle question
09/02/08 at 06:13:00

It's a '08 with 2400 miles, all stock. Had been running great, I decided it was time to check the valve clearance and all was within specs, so no adjustments made.
Afterwards it seems that in the morning when I crank it up to go to work it runs rough at idle unil it is warmed up. ( when I get to the first traffic light I no longer notice the problem) The temps are around 70, the same as it has been, so I have not been choking it. I usually run 45- 60 MPH and gas mileage has dropped from 68mpg to 60 mpg.
Vacuum line is dry.
Air filter is clean.
Spark plug looked good.
Like I said, all I did was check the valve clearance.
Any ideas?
