[V8] driveability problem

[Klein, Nathan P]

-5C outside?  That's -23F!

I will never again complain about the 40-degree nights we've been having
here in Texas.  =)

Today barely made it to work.When the temperature is low (-5 C and
lower) the idle fluctuates widely ,between normal and 200 rpm,the car
surges and has no power.At a light I placed it in neutral and rpm
returned to 800 .Idles OK.So could it be that solenoid that controls the
torque converter ?
Problem is intermittent ,last time it happened was a month ago.Next time
when I start the engine it could be all gone.Unfortunately I don't have
a code reader.Thanks again guys.
