Hm, sounds like a bit of a frustrating issue. Vacuum leak perhaps? Crappy gasket somewhere?
It's also quite annoying how it costs a lot..
kinda sounds like a IAC issue roger. car will idle high means stuck open a bit means less vacuum means map signal changes means more fuel. obd0 dont have all these fancy sensors like these new cars dude which adapt to changes if a fuel mixer is richer or leaner. getting the idle right and will make the vacuum hg right meaning the map signal will change to spec and run leaner. SOunds funny but small shit like that makes a world of defference.
I would clean the iac and go from there . check your vacuum and you should see 19hg if less check your valve lash. all these things will make a big change on how your car idles.
pm roger if you need some details.
Worst case a smidge of denatured alcohol from Lowes.
I've checked, but not a throughly ... I'll try again this weekendQuote:

fill it up after 50% throttle or keep it low till after the test?Quote:
