    X 3 on the FPR or IAC, but I would also do a check for a cracked intake manifold gasket.
    This is a known problem and causes erratic idle issues.

    I had the manifold gasket issue, but it wasn't causing a dying. It was a repetitious up/down, up/down, presenting just like a vacuum leak. It drove me crazy b/c that's what I thought was going on *lol*.

    That is what it was, a cracked intake manifold. Or at least I hope. I'm getting it fixed right now and they just told me what it was. Thanks for all the help and suggestions!
