[V8] (no subject) - idle problem

Not sure about the gear/neutral part, but 2 things come to mind with an
idle problem...
ISV (idle stabilizer valve) - Clean it with some throttle body cleaner.
(For those unfamiliar with its location, it is the black dohicky on the
front of the engine that looks like a miniature starter motor.)
Another culprit might be vacuum leak. Replace all your vacuum lines
(for under $10) and even put hose clamps on each connection. This can
improve gas mileage as well.
Anyone else have any suggestions? I suppose a fuel delivery problem
might cause this...
Good luck,
- Jeremy

My 90 has a problem where when I start it when cold, it won't keep
running
on idle.
However If I put it in gear and back in neutral it will idle. Any
suggestions ?
