I've got one of those super duper things you put into your throttle body to smooth out the incoming air. Last year I took the fastener for it out and smoothed it way down in case it was restricting air into the IAC passages. Is it possible that could be restricting air from the IAC and causing some of these problems"?


Bob, I reread this thread, and this point jumped out at me. I recall a problem some guys had with aftermarket throttle bodies and the IAC bleed hole not being there. I seem to remember some air foils covering the stock IAC bleed hole, too, causing problems. GM designed the TB to have a small amount of air coming into the intake past the IAC.

Do you have an aftermarket TB? Does your airfoil cover the IAC hole?

Look at these links for examples:
