Surging 350 at idle

Nov 02, 2007 1 Replies

Faithful 91 Sub surges at idle. About 192K on engine, no other problems other than surging idle. Engine is rock steady above 900 rpm. Passed rarified HOU TX emissions 30 days ago.



Codes indicated TPS and EGR valve so replaced tehm and plugs, plug wires, cap and rotor, timing chain and gears, and coolant temperature sensor. Have full power and better mpg now than when new (16+ mpg at 65 to 75) but it looks like the surge problem is in the electronic fuel injection. Any ideas? TIA!


Check for vacuum leaks, especially between the throttle body and intake manifold.
