Bouncing idle to a stall at a stop in the heat
Hey guys,


The ol' 94 has came over all sick since the weather has been getting warmer here in Colorado over the last month or so. At a stop the idle will drop to around 500 RPM then to 100-200 RPM up and down till it stalls. It was happening at first only when I had the AC on now its all the time since its been about over 70 Deg F.

I need to check the vacuum lines what else should I look into?



Dave

The exact same thing was happening to me until I found the small hole in the plastic air tube running from the air filter to the intake at the throttle body.

Bought a new one put it on, problem solved.

The way I found the hole was to spray break cleaner (very flammable) over the engine lines. When the engine would rev high (burning the break cleaner) I would look where I sprayed and found the hole.
