You guys with idle/stall problems could save a lot of time chasing your tails if you would go through the Surging Idle Checklist. Over 50 different people contributed information to it. The first two posts have all the fixes, and steps through the how to find and fix your idle problems without spending a lot of time and money. It includes how to dump the computer codes quickly and simply as one of the first steps. I continue to update it as more people post fixes or ask questions. You can post questions to that sticky and have your name and idle problem recognized. The guys with original problems and fixes get their posts added to the main fix.

It's free, I don't get anything for the use of it except knowing I helped a fellow Mustang enthusiast with his car. At last check, it had more than 250,000 hits, which indicates it does help fix idle problems quickly and inexpensively.

I hav did the checklist , The only code I get is 67 and 11, and for 2 weeks I can’t figure it out, switch works , checked wiring with multimeter, the car runs perfect except for the 1-1.5 second high rev at warm startup, I would like to run a koer test , I have read on here today that I can run the test by grounding out pin#30 hope that doesn’t screw anything up..
