But it didn't fix it.
Anybody else had this problem or know how to fix it, i was thinking was a relay or something lose.

Might be the starter switch in the ignition barrell, unless it's an auto? You don't need a whole new ignition barrell for that either, just the switch.

Also as of the last month or more it has truble trying to find idle, it creeps between 1200rpm and 2000rpm continious but only after the auto choke as disengaged. Any ideas???

Sounds like a vacuum leak to me...
