first thing, the battery doesn't make a difference. second thing, manybrews is half right. you car should idle IN PARK at 750 RPM, plus or minus 100RPM. but you have to adjust your throttle. idling at 1.5K RPM isn't too good, since you should be at around 750. what you have to do, is turn the little screw that touches the throttle and alows it to open and close. you need to turn the screw counter clockwise so the throttle closes all the way. then turn the screw back (clockwise) so the throttle opens. turn it SLOWLY. the second you see the throttle start to open, stop. then, turn the screw another revolution, then 1/4 of a revolution. so basically turn it 1 and 1/4 more revolutions. this will get your car right on at 850, which is perfect for me. all the skipping you're feeling is you car trying to slightly disengage the auto clutch while it's at 1.5K rpm. idling at 1.5K rpm isn't too good, and it's better to idle at a lower speed than a higher. my car got so bad one time it was at 200rpm, it ran fine, just lest responsive.
there's nothing wrong with the car, just hte cable got stretched a little bit. it happens to everyone. something u should do for a drastic performance increase, is TIGHTEN the throttle cable. i'm not talking about adjusting the valve opening. somone wrote a post on it, you can search for it, i did it just the other day, and it responds like a fucking mercedes. it wont increase your acceleration by all that much, but it drastically improves response.
