Follow the instructions I gave on how to reset the IAC. It is the first thing you should try before tearing into anything....
Good luck Mister Phelps......

Re: (85superram)
I think I figured it out....The big vacuum line that goes into the throttle body has no clamp on it and it is very loose...
Hope it works for you....

Re: Superram installed- Now car "cams" (85superram)
Wish I was more familiar with the '85 Vette, but I do have a '86, and had the same problem with my EGR.
Prior to me adding the Mini Ram (which has no requirement for an EGR Valve) I added 4" TALL Center-Bolt Valve Covers a few years back. By doing so, the EGR Pipe would not clear the TALL Covers.
I bought another EGR Valve/Pipe,...made a few measurements...cut both my stock EGR Pipe, and the new EGR Pipe, and then welded them together.
Worked perfectly...got no codes, and smelled no fumes.
