Be certain to check the adjustment of the throttle switches
(specifically, the idle stop switch) prior to replacing your idle
stabilizer.  Additionally, this problem can be caused by a vacuum leak
and/or a defective idle stabilizer controller as well as an idle-air
bypass screw which is backed out too far.


Good luck.
