Okay, I lied. I did find one hose that was a little loose. It hardened up at one of the intakes. I'm not sure if that may be the idle problem. I would like to find out where an AIC valve would be found. Does anybody know? Also, does anybody know where I can buy vacuum hoses to replace? Thanks in advance.
