    Do you have a stock PCM that you can try. The other guys earlier in the thread may be on to something.

    Do you know how to check the injector duty cycle with a DVM?

    Well yea, check for vacuum leaks and swap the PCM. Be sure to update.

    What MAP sensor are you using? I hope you switched over the the 2 bar L67 MAP otherwise the PCM thinks you have a 2 bar when you are running the stock GT 1 bar.

    I am almost 100% on that is what it is. I bet if you throw your GT PCM on the car it will idle better.

    I was hoping the MAP was the answer as suggested by pure2sin. Damn!

    Before you put the old PCM back in make sure you check your grounds, battery and alternator. That's about all I can think of.

    Oh man! Great!
    Since it didn't set a code I'm wondering if there is something wrong with the PCM. The return signal from the IAC to the PCM has to be within a strict set of parameters. If no code then .

    I'll have to remember this one!

    You might want to go with overkill.

    I wonder if anyone else has an opinion on that.

    When I did a SSIC I had similar symptoms as you are having. And it was Vaccum leak.

    Nope. I let it run for about a hour and nothing. I can shut it down and restart it but if it sits for couple hours it just cranks
