Or something, yes.  First two suspects, if all general tune-up items are 
in good shape, would be that the ISV needs cleaning, or that theidle 
switch (on throttle body) is bad/intermittent.  The ECU can't regulate 
the idle if it doesn't know it's supposed to.

I'm assuming some form of CIS on this 2.3 engine...
