Hey guys you may remember twoo weeks ago I had the run around with replacing my fuel pump and filter, and repairing the line. Well just this friday I came home from school and when I started hitting a lot of stop signs, every now and then it would stall. Also, just starting friday, it would take 2-3 tries with the starter to get it to fire. So I did some research, got a fuel pressure gauge and had a 100 psi gauge maxed out when running. Then I replaced the fuel pressure regulator (100 bucks) and now the starting issue is cleared up. However, it still maintains a pulsing or surging idle like from 900 to 1000 rpms. Standing in front of the exhaust it sound like it has a hot cam in it. Now, driving back to college, occasionally, especially on hills, I have to put the gas to the floor and it doesn't want to rev much past 3 grand. Sometimes it goes to 3300 then actually drops down to 3000 and really feels to bog down. Other times it willl be just fine. IAC was new last year. Air filter is 2 weeks old. new fuel pump, filter, and FPR. I cannot detect any obvious vacuum leaks. Any ideas
