I'm still trying to figure out my idle hunting problem. Many people suggested checking/cleaning the MAF connectors.

While cleaning them, I noticed that the female connector has 5 active slots, whereas the male connector has 6 prongs. The far right slot on the female connector is empty. Is this normal? Can someone check the female connector and tell me if they have 5 or 6 slots?

Check all your vaccum lines, do you have a boost gauge?

By what I remember the test was only to disconnect the O2 sensor wires and check for engine behavior?... Emre?

throttle plate from closing propery, then the ISV, etc. may have a tough time trying to settle things down. There could be some crud in the port from the ISV to the throttle body as well. I suggest cleaning. Remove the intake air temp sensor before you clean and clean separately while it is out.

Just a thought.
