I was going over the car once again today and remembered someone telling me to check the auxillary air regulator. At that time, I cleaned out the regulator with carb cleaner and it made no difference although a lot of oil came out of it. Well today I removed the regulator and checked it with a meter, book says 40-75 ohms and mine read .01 or basically shorted. Ordered one today. Also my air flow meter checked out on all resistance tests except one. I bought a used air flow meter and installed it without checking the resistance. All resistance tests were way out of range telling me the meter is shot. I plan to replace that when I win the lottery, I guess they are around 300.00 or so for a rebuilt one. But good call on the high idle being caused by air. I was puzzeled because I had no vacuum leaks. Thanks and I will update when parts are replaced.
