Thanks for all the help..but: I failed to see the two-prong module
connnector that was disconnected, right on top of the engine near the
distributor.. One end of which comes right off of a throttle device
also on top.
The good: when reconnected, the idle comes down nicely and a fairly
smooth idle. The bad: the thing bucks now and stumbles on most
accellerations from a stop. Damn. And why only most accelerations
from stop?...I thought it would be all or none.
Anyway, probably too complex to diagnose here but if someone has a
simple place to look or fault to look at, much appreciated. I can't
imagine going into D with idle at 1300 is too good for the Auto trans.
But stumbling on a slow speed merge isnt fun either. Ahh the longing
for the ZDJL.....
