A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Ok I decided to reset the IAC by tripping the ALDL port and setting my base RPM. I got the rpm down as low as 475 and set it at 525 reset the TPS and fired it up hmm idles good IAC is at 25 TPS is at .43. Shut it down tighten everything up and fire it up goes super lean rpm is low WTF look at the IAC it's at 175 .... So its trying to bring the RPM up but I guess there is not enough fuel there to do it?
Shut it down fire it up and it's fine, try it a half a dozen times and it's good 5 out of 6 but every once in a while The IAC goes mental.
Am I correct in thinking that the fueling is not right on the odd occasion it goes mental or could it be the IAC?

Larry over the last 4-5 years my IAC will act normal most of the time & then do like yours & read really high & I've swapped/cleaned a couple of them. One thing is my idle stays about the same no matter what it reads so in my case I don't pay much attention to it. If yours is good 5 of 6 times maybe drive it for a while & see how it acts after a couple weeks?

When it acts up its not really drivable. I am able to watch what is going on in the MAF translator air flow in is typically at 6g on the translator hz in is 1800 hz out is 39 and rpm is around 850 IAC is at 25.
When it loses its mind air flow in is 10-11g hz in is 2100-2200 hz out is 39 rpm is about 700 IAC is 175.  Some thing is very a miss.

The only time my car acted somewhat similar to your kind of erratic readings with some popping & farting was when my stock MAF sensor was having a slow death. Probably not much help for your problem. I hope you get it sorted out because that kind of stuff makes me Nuts!  :icon_eyes:

I'm leaning towards a translator issue

Did you consider a blocked exhaust. Do you still run a cat? In the old days we used to have double wall pipes separate and crimp the inner wall shut, not on GN's but mostly Chev's. The way your car is behaving reminds me of that, especially with only 12" vacuum.

So swapped in my buddies translator and TT chip purred like a kitten....
BLM was good IAC was good.
Reinstalled mine and was reattaching it to the dash it dies. My buddy tugs on each wire on the connector and duplicates the symptom twice. Looks like I need the connector repined we tightened them as best we could with a pick but I'm going to get the pin tool and take it apart add new connectors on the plug see if that smartens it up.
