Try carb cleaner in the AIC valve...

to clean it out. Unplug it and then undo the vacuum hoses to it. Then, if possible, unbolt it's clamp and remove it to spray carb cleaner in it (I'd do this with the electrical plug end of the AIC valve held high, so that the carb stuff doesn't damage the electrics inside.
The reason for cleaning is combustion (PCV) system sludge returned to the throttle body for reburning can create a gooey mess in the throttle body as well as the AIC valve. Also, if your car has the LH 2.2 injection system ('85-'88 Turbos & '86-'87 "S" models), then check the link below for more info.
