How about the engine temp sensor? If that was bad, it could also cause the engine to run rough at idle when cold.
Clark's has got procedures for testing most everything: http://www.clarks-garage.com/shop-manual/elect-19.htm

As to the hoses, I'd just try and tighten every hose clamp that is accessible, at least first.
The balance of the vacuum hoses are under the intake manifold - which is pretty easy to take off.
But what about the more mundane things like your plugs and the rotor and cap? Cleaned and gapped your plugs lately? Doesn't cost anything to do it and it might help. |
Well,... the PO said that everything was new and taken care of but to be safe I will start with the simple things first so atleast I know what everything looks like.
I will check clarks-garage out. You know,... I do remember the PO saying something abou the ISV. He said he didnt mount it. That its laying under the intake manifold wrapped in some kind of plastic something. Hmmm. I'll keep you guys posted. Take some pics of everything too.
