The weird thing about the IAC is I disconnected it about 2 weeks ago and it did the same thing it did tonight but I did it again a few days later and it had know effect what so ever as far as hanging and not hanging.

I had the same problem and so did my neighbors stang. my 89 would do that after getting off the freeway but it would not return to idle so i change the injector harness which was really easy and bam its fixed. But the car still sits in the back yard clutch problems now!

69mustangowner, What led you to think it was the injector harness?

OK I did a vacuum test on my car today and the needle bounced very rapidly between 15 and 20 at idle. What does this mean???
