My 1995 Cobra (116k) started doing a classic idle surge last week (ie push clutch in, RPM's shoot up to ~2k and stay there). As a first step, I cleaned the IAC, MAF, and TB and then did an ECU reset. The surging seems to be gone, but the car is running like crap now. When I first start it, it bogs down very low (<500 rpms) for a few seconds and then bounces up to ~1500rpms. It continues to do this cycle for ~10 minutes. I can't really drive it because it's just crapping out at the low RPM's. If I hit the gas, it just bogs down hardcore. Once it warms up, it runs a little better, but not with full power - it feels sluggish. Even when warm, it idles like its got a wicked cam (lugging sound) but it's all stock.
I tried resetting the ECU again and driving it around to let the computer figure things out. After a while, things *seem* a little better, but the next morning it is bogging out horribly again.
Ideas??
