Another update. I shut her off and screwed in that throttle bolt just about all the way and started her back up. Jumped the pins to then back her out slowly after the car warmed up so that I could set the idle. The surging stopped (knock on wood...for now). After removing the jumper (thus reactivating the NEW idle Stabilizer) the RPMS dropped about 500, so something must be metering wrong right? Maybe I'll just try it again. I also unplugged the O2 to eliminate that from the equation before trying my luck at the throttle bolt. Wasn't the O2 and I checked all vacuum lines, hoses. All good, most are new and everything is tight. We'll see if I can fix the low idle.... maybe I should jump it and set it high so that when I unjump it and it drops, it lands on a good idle RPM? As for the whine, I still think it's the Power Steering Belt I feel I over tightened. Anyone know how to adjust that guy? Whats the proper tension? I have a Krikit.... Also, if it is the belt... would it accelerate as the motor does? I ask because I dont think it would but if I give it a tad of gas the whine gets loader, faster (higher pitch) along with the engine. Would a belt do that or does this mean it's something else? Thanks!
