So, now that I have the key issue resolved, it's on to the next two problems, a rough idle when in drive, and a inoperative air conditioning. I'll start another thread on the A/C issue, for now here's whats up with the engine.
It runs GREAT. Lots of power, drives smooth, etc. The only problem is that in neutral and at idle, it's a bit of a rough idle, and when I put it into drive at idle it gets significantly worse. I suspect that it gets worse because when dropped into drive the RPM's naturally drop, making the problem more exaggerated. There is no check engine light on.
I have cleaned both the throttle body and the mass airflow sensor with the appropriate cleaners. Those both made little difference. I have looked for vacuum leaks and don't see any. What's the best way to do a very thorough sweep for possible vacuum leaks that I may be missing?
Is this a known issue? Any suggestions on where to start? I hate to just start throwing parts at it without any direction.
