No problem man, I was hoping that was the problem after we couldn't find anything else... although the IAC motor shooting away was a pretty good indication when we tested it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

It seems that a dirty/faulty IAC motor was the cause (coupled with a failing battery). After the dealer finally got the IAC motor delivered, I isntalled the new piece, cleaned up the intake/MAF/TB and the car fired right up. Granted I had to screw in the TB set screw about a turn and a half (it was opened up quite a bit to limp home from Nick's house after we turned the IAC motor into a projectile <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> )

Just something for others with idle problems to look at. My car would never start on the first try when cold. After a few cranks it would stablize. Now if fires up just like stock. Thanks again Nick!
