If you are getting an idle adaption code, then the problem is quite possibly
in the throttle valve area. Remove the intake boot and check to see if there
is any build-up in the throttle bores and plates. If so, a healthy dose of
carb cleaner and a tooth brush will do the trick. Then disconnect the
battery and jumper both batteyr leads together for a good hour, or better
yet, overnight. This saps all memory from all control modules and allows
them to start from fresh. Reconnect the battery and see if the problem goes
away. It may take a drive cycle or two for everything to come back online in
a correct fashion. If you still have the problem, you may have an input
issue to the ICV, a vacuum leak or a faulty CTS. Get back to me with the
results.
