Tune-up time, also replace your air & fuel filters, check your vacumn lines , check for any trouble codes, ( @ the parts store ) . tighten all bolts @ throttle body, gaskets could be leaking, or sucking air. it could be a number of sensors causing you problems, OXYGEN sensor should always be replaced as a maintenance thing ! balls in your court BOB !

I have a 2005 vectra with a z32se and it is runing rough on idle when you rev it . It clears up

And then it runs rough again? No codes? There are 4 things a car need: Fuel, air, compression, and spark. Have you done a tune up lately? Check for a vacuum leak

My 1996 nissan is runing rough

I always check the simple things first, and it has served me well. It could be clogged injectors, put a bottle or two of injector cleaner in your (full) gas tank. Could also be dirty air filter, or combination of the two. Check fuel filter too, I've seen those do a lot of weird things when they get clogged to the point of restricting fuel flow. Good luck

I have a 2000 ford explorer sport 4.0L OHV, in the mornings when first started it runs real rough until it goes through its cycle of runing rough then it cleats up and runs ok. Then when u park it after...

Here are the most common causes of idle surge, rough idle esp when cold, other symptoms include stalls at stops, slow idle speed, erratic idle speed, rough idle and engine hesitation (and other problems), it is in most cases the idle speed control air-bypass valve and or throttle valve and upper intake, these area's get full of gunk and combustion residue over the miles and cause idle issues (stalls, low idle) like yours, Get a can of intake cleaner from any local parts store, not carb spray, intake cleaner, it is made by a company called CRC, remove the air intake hose to the engine, hold the idle high so the engine won't stall, then spray the can of cleaner into the intake while keeping the engine running, use at least 1/2 the can, shut down the engine and disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, then restart and complete a number of mixed driving cycles, town, freeway, stop and go etc., after a few days the problem will go away as the system will relearn to the clean intake

Rough idle no check engine lights sometimes runs up to 2000rpms other times dies out or idles low smell like its runing rich changed the tps with no change whats the problem?

It sounds like your engine is gummed up. I recommend that you get two bottles of a fuel additive called seafoam and dump them into the gas tank. In no time, your engine will be purring again.

Engine runing rough

This code is most likely not related to the problem, it sounds like you may have picked up some contaminated gasoline, maybe has water in it or other like dirt.
