Dave, let us know if it's a turbo or non-turbo. It it's a turbo, I'm limited to what I'm currently doing to my 1988 non-turbo 16 valve with similar warm idle hunting problems. I have received great advice and input on this bulletin and done the following:
-run fuel system injection cleaner through the tank
-Continue to check for vacuum leaks everywhere
-cleaned the AIC valve twice over
-check for cracked or leaking AIC hoses to the intake and throttle body
-replaced all rubber grommets in the intake and one in the valve cover
-replaced the water temperature sensor between #2 and #3 injectors on the head (my cold starts are smooth and way more stable)
-clean and retighten ground wire clusters at front near #4 injector
-clean and retighten ground wire cluster on driver's side at bottom of radiator on the frame
-clean MAF
-cleaned the throttle body and butterfly thoroughly
-checked timing
-Bought a pigtail connector(arrived yesterday)for my AIC since I'm suspect of the female connector(it was spliced once before) to rule out engine vibration causing intermittent contact problems with the electrical hookup.
-Interestingly enough, mine will give a normal idle when you shut it off warm, fill it up with gas and/or run your errand and come back and restart it.
I hope that this helps, good luck!!!
