Well I stuck my foot in my mouth...literally...I didn't read it was your first post until AFTER I replied. That's why I apologized right after. The wandering idle has so many possible cause we should make this thread a sticky so that whenever someone finds a new reason they can let everyone else know...fords :laughhard

Sometimes the nice thing about a vacuum leak is the suction noise that it make helps you find it....
