Yup yup,

You messing with your idle screw may be the cause of your check engine light due to TPS out of range.

Re: surging?

well its idleing great now, gonna go ahead and plug the nitrous hole though just to keep from sucking debris in the intake.

don't know if their scanner will hook up to our antiques. Worth a try though. You may have to go to a mechanic shop

Re: surging?

on scanning... since i have been there lately... it is OBD 1 so auto zone isnt gonna help you... at all... you have to find somebody with a scanner to obd 1... most osciliscopes have them... just go to a shop... if they do free runs... you are good... it cost me 50 dollars to use an oscilliscope... that is a system used for scanning older vehicles for problems

Re: surging?

Man, just get out a analog voltmeter and read the codes yourself. I think there is a how-to on the Corral.net somehwhere. Best bet it to just pull out the test port (pass side near the MAF) and take it to Autozone or Advanced Auto. They will check the older cars still if you dont haev a scanner or analog meter.

Hell, you don't even need a meter; just jumper the test connector and count the CEL flashes.

Yep. You, sir, had unmetered air (vacuum leak) causing all kinds of problems...
