Re: [DML] Found the source of my idle problems

["Matt Spittle" <supermatty@xxxxxxx>]

Patrick,

I had this problem with my car, and it disappeared completely after 
I replaced all of my vacuum hoses with Hervey's silicone kit, as 
well as the intake manifold o-rings, fuel injector seals, and ported 
vacuum switch.  Mine only did it after you got past 3500 RPM or so 
though.  It was also hesitant when accelerating when the engine was 
cold.
