Well, I messed around with it a little bit more this weekend. Cleaned out the idle air valve (it was pretty nasty), checked all of the grounds, cleaned all of the electrical connectors that I could find, and not much improvement. After clearing the error codes from the computer, I drove it several times and all that I could get out of it was a 1-1-1. I finally found a crack in the short rubber connector hose for the MAP sensor and that made a big difference. Still have a high idle when it is warm (about 1600) but at least it is drivable. I will check the codes tomorrow night and see if anything else is showing up.
