Is it a tick, or a knock, or a rattle?

Question do you have spell check and where are you from? Could you please retype what you said. What is this fuel pad you speak of?

I think he means the gas pedal. I really don't think English is his first language.
awssubaruls - Did you replace the spark plug wires as well as the plugs?

I wonder if it could be a drivetrain problem. If it only happens when he stops, and is off the gas...
awssubaruls: Does the car have a manual or automatic transmission?

It still sounds like misfiring, but if the coil was bad it should do it all the time. Maybe a dirty IAC (idle air control) valve.
yes sir

There is a small tube connected to the air intake follow that tube to the piece below the throttle body and you will see it. You can just spray some throttle body cleaner or pour some seafoam in that tube while you have someone reving up the engine.
Here is a pic from USMB forum

If you look at your engine from the front of the car, the IAC valve is mounted to the intake manifold to the left of the throttle body and below the PCV valve. One way to clean it is described here:
http://bbs.legacycentral.org/viewtopic.php?p=1199#1199
If you follow that advice, be sure to mark the position of the electrical portion of the valve before you remove it, so you can put it back in the same position.
Another possible reason for misfiring at idle is a vacuum leak. You can locate vacuum leaks using starting fluid:

I don't have a picture, but it is a very easy task.
You need an aerosol can of "Starting Fluid." It is normally used to help with an engine that is having difficulty starting, and is sold at auto parts stores.
With the engine running, you spray the starting fluid in short bursts in various places around the intake manifold.
What are these items?

Please spend some time reading the threads marked "Sticky" at the top of each forums of this BBS. The answer to your question is in one of them.

I deleted your other threads. In the future, please don't start a new thread for every little addendum to your initial questions. Furthermore, please use titles that reflect the problem you are asking about inside the thread. "Hi again" is not an appropriate title for a tech thread.
As VRG suggested, most of the information you need is easily found by reviewing the stickies. They should always be your first resort to finding answers. Your second resort should be using the search button. IF both of those methods fail, then it is appropriate to start a thread.
Lastly, if you make an effort to spell properly and capitalize you will get a lot more help. Many of us are adults and I for one just close the thread and move onto the next one when it looks like it was typed by a third grader. Even if English isn't your first language, there are many translation software packages out there that will do a pretty good job of converting your native language over to ours...

The first picture looks like something that is part of a mechanical fuel injection system or carburator. I've got a manual somewhere that does cover the carburator, but I have to find it.

Is this really necessary? He's obviously not fluent in english, do you need to point it out and put him down at the same time? You can get the meaning of what he's asking, so why tell him to "make an effort" to speak fluently? This isn't english class, just answer the guy's question, or don't. If you knew a decent amount of a foreign language, and posted questions on a forum in that language(or even went to that country), would you not want people to be somewhat understanding of your lack of the language? Or would you want everyone to tell you to make an effort to learn the language before you post again?
