I have checked for good vacuum before by disconnecting the hose from the air box (before the AMM) and sticking my hand over it. It sucked... HARD.

I have JUST gotten out of it re-pissed.

SYMPTOMS ADDENDUM:

After the engine has warmed up, been shut down, then restarted, it will do it's stalling hiccup. If I *TAP* on the gas, it will try to stall. If I gently depress it it will not. The harder I tap the less it tries to stall. I disconnected my idle air motor (The 'lectric dealie that bypasses the throttle to regulate the idle) and this behavior did not change, although the engine surged every so often on reconnecting it.



I'm starting to think it's the idle air motor... drat.
