Talk to Jon, he'll get you set up! You didn't do the test to make sure?

Default Finally Fixed!!!

Just thought I would finish this thread off. I hate when you search and find your problem and the people never say how the fixed the prob. I installed new injectors and it ran fine but still wouldn't idle. I installed a new iac and now it runs great...I took it out today and it was laying rubber all the way down the street.... Thanks to everyone that helped me.

My 1990 was doing something like that. It turns out that I had a blown head gasket and that coolant vapor was getting into the intake and causing the rough idle and loss of power. It was worse when the car was fully warmed up. I started to see the temp go up some too.

I'm not a mechanic, but thought I'd pass on my experience.
