sorry for not posting back I have been busy. My car is an 84 gsl-se that is stock except for the cat. The ports are not working yet because I have not hooked up the airpump to them. Last week I cleaned the inside of the intake manifold (Kerosene and a dremel does wonders) and replaced all the gaskets. It had a lot of carbon in there and it might have been because the secondaries were not opening.
I also replaced the bad vacuum lines in hope of killing my idle problem. I don't understand why it still doesn't idle. I have checked the AFM and it works, I have checked the clearances of the throttle body, I have replaced all the intake gaskets, I am in the process of getting the ports working, I have re-adjusted the tps(I guess I need to do it again since I replaced the gaskets), I have replaced bad vacuum hoses, I have new plugs, and I will replace the fuel filter.
If it could be anything else please tell me.
