Idling trouble... I'm miffed.

Ah - I dont recall the testing procedures for the air solenoid... but if you connected it and all hell brakes lose, and disconnecting it corrects the problem then I have to believe that something mechanical is bad or going bad, not sealing, etc.

Have you done a spray test? Connect that and let it do its funky idle and hit that area w/ some starter fluid and see if it sucks it in and smooths the idle out....
