Hey Scotty, my car just passed smog with flying colors, but there is one thing that bothers me. It idles around 600RPM when in gear, just a wee bit low. What tool can i buy that's the cheapest and is able to do the job? Thanks....

as long as it idles smoothly, I wouldn't worry too much.
You can try cleaning out the throttle body.

Check your TPS.
While I was in process of fixing the idle. I notice all of a sudden, coolant leaking from the exhaust manifold! I ran a compression check on all 4 cylinders and each cylinder has 120+ PSI Could the head have cracked instead of the head gasket being blown? I cant believe the bad luck with this car, I think its CURSED!
Sounds like a cracked cylinder head for sure. Bummer.
