Still have this problem intermittantly with the van.  Now I realize that the
idle is not increasing in speed.  I changed the idle speed and it is up
where I set it a lot of the time.  It seems that the idle speed is dropping
down to maybe half normal or sometimes so low it dies.  Not a problem most
of the time.  This appears to be a little bit different than what most
people on the list have explained when trying to handle the same problem.  I
have redone a lot of the grounds and that helped with other problems.  Could
be I have a bad wire somewhere for either power or ground.  I have no
problem when the throttle idle position switch is not in the idle position.
In the past I have bypassed the idle stabelizer and the problem continued so
I am guessing that is not the problem.  I don't remember if the problem only
happens at warm temperature or has also happend at cold temperature.  Anyone
have any ideas other than wiring?
