Thanks Rasmataz, I did as you suggested as well as carfully cleaned the throddlebody and the entrance to the intake with carbcleaner. Put it all back just as it was. Tripple checked everything. Started it up and it idles fine now. But now the check engine light is on. It was not on before. Any suggestions?
