Hello everyone, I've been working on chasing down various issues with my 1991 240 wagon, and I'm having trouble diagnosing my issue at this point. I have a very slight stumble at idle that is visible if you watch the engine, but isn't a big enough change to register on my small tach. While investigating that, I determined that the IAC valve was not working correctly. I could pinch both hoses going to the IAC all the way flat, and there was no change to the idle. Also it looks like someone had messed with the little adjustment screw on the valve at some point in the past. I replaced the IAC with a new one from IPD, and now the car idles waaaaaaay worse than before. According to my small tach, it idles at about 1-1.2k, but sometimes it will get hung up after revving around 1.5-2k. Also sometimes it will surge from about 1.2-2k. Usually I can get this to stop by revving it back up and the idle will rest back at about 1k. I have visually checked for vacuum leaks and found nothing. I have also installed a throttle body gasket, intake gasket, new throttle position sensor, new crank position sensor, and coolant temp sensor within the last month. My next idea is to check out my MAF and maybe get the car smoke tested to see if I might have missed a vacuum leak, but I'm running out of ideas.
Is there anything I've possibly overlooked that I should also check out?
In the past, I have gotten code 232 for the car being too rich/too lean at idle, as well as the code for the speed sensor. I visually checked out the wiring by the speed sensor, and it doesn't look bad. Also sometimes my speedo will cut out, but it can be fixed by smacking the top of the dash.
Thanks in advanced for the help,
Ryan
