Yes, with the stabilizer still installed but electrically disconnected
the idle is still high and surging. I wonder if it might still be
possible for it to be an O2 or other sensor problem, because
it is still possible that the CPU might be diddling the timing to
try to control the idle, or diddling the mixture, etc. I have found
that I can hold the idle steady by letting the clutch drag, or by
eliminating the stabilizer and plugging the hoses and manually
controlling the throttle, a rock-steady 800 or 900 RPM is possible.
With the stabilizer installed and connected or disconnected
electrically, it is impossible to hold the idle steady with the
throttle.
