Just wanted to update an OLD thread, havent been on the forums for a while. I had done a full replacement on the vacuum lines and still had the problems, for a long time I had no other solutions. My only other conclusion was that I may have a bad harness. So I took the spare harness I had, sodered on new plugs where they were bad, heat wrapped sensitive areas, was a new and better harness ready to swap in. So while removing my old harness I spotted a fuel line that was pinched in a area that would not have been visible to me if I had not removed the harness. Fixed the pinched line and put in the new harness, and the car runs smooth as hell with a perfect 700 idle.

Took forever to figure it out, I reccomend that everyone checks their vacuum and fuel lines since these cars are 20(give or take) years old.
