i don't know what the little thing is called by the upper intake that is screwed on to side by the elbow, but we took it off and sprayed eather on in and it ideled better!

LMFAO!

What my novice buddy here is referring to is IAC or IDLE AIR CONTROL.

They tend to get gummed up with carbon and crap and can be cleaned with a good carb cleaner and a few different types of brushes to get the carbon off.If you idle is still surging i would check the TPS they can cause the same thing to happen.
