acceleration problem fixed



Thanks to all who told me to check my Idle Stabilizer valve.

I had it out today and it was seized.  I've never seen so much crap come 
out of something when I cleaned it.  Half a can of WD40 and it is shiny 
and sqeaky clean and it now operates.  WHAT a difference.  Even my start 
problems are gone (long craking, rough idle).  It was remarkably easy to do.

If you've never cleaned your ISV, *do it*.
