Different Surging Idle Fix....
In my searches, I found a different method to fix the idle that is not as popular as the traditional methods:
"Open up the divider between the ports on the IAC with a dremel"
Anyone tried it??

RE: Different Surging Idle Fix....
From some other stuff I found, they say trimming down the gasket in between the two ports works too...
I think I will try that first...before ruining my IAC
I think it essentially does the same thing as the IAC adjuster......minus the $50
Has anyone seen/tried this?

with mild bolt on's you shouldn't have to do such a thing.. idle surge is often a result of vaccum leaks and or the valve itself....the proper fix is to find what is causing it and not jerry rig a so called fix

TPS is at .98, Reset Base Idle, Fuel Pressure is at 42....and it still surges [:@]
I am running out of ideas...at this point, the only culprit to blame is my cam (TFS 1)
The only other options are to drill the TB (will also stop my BBK whistle), and I was thinking about the IAC adjuster too...do you have any experience with it?

check vaccumes if your running bigger injectors then stock make sure you got a clibrated MAF for those injectors

MAF is calibrated for 24s....
A dyno tune can open the window of SENSITIVITY OF THE IAC to over correct.. but they make a plate with a screw in it to adjust also..worth a try
As far as the adjuster.....I guess it is worth a try....but I hate to spend another $50 on something that makes no difference....the wife is starting to catch on
