Thanks Peter,
Your evaluation sure makes sense - now, if I can find the Idle Control Valve ;-) Hopefully the pages I printed from the WSM will lead me to it.

Thanks!!

Clean the idle control valve and verify that you have no vacuum leaks
-- this behavior is a almost always a result of the valve closing too
much on coast due to a vac leak, then sticking shut as the engine speed
comes down from the dirt.

I doubt anything would show up on the diagnostics.

The "device" you need is a LED with the ground provided by the test
socket, I think.  You count the flashes.  Could be wrong, though, never
used it.

Peter
