my guess is that the boot between the AFM and the throttle body is ripped. Remove and inspect it as it likes to rip in between the pleats and it's hard to see. Start there, then look for vaccuum leaks in other places if that's not it. All those hard hoses coming in/out of the idle control valve on top are suspect, as well as the valve itself, checking its operation is pretty easy. Talk him in to buying a Bently manual for the car, they're like $30 and absolutly REQUIRED. :wink:
