pull one of the spark plugs and let us know whether the porcelain is white, sooty black, or the normal tan color. Sooty black indicates too rich, white indicates too lean, and normal tan indicates, well, normal F/A ratio.
Let us know what the timing is at, too. Should be around 16 deg before top dead center.
To confirm suspicions about the AIC valve, unplug it. The car should idle at around 1200 rpm with the valve unplugged.
Sometimes the AMM itself goes bad. Try starting it with the AMM unplugged.
Thinking back to some posts over the last few years, funky running problems like this are sometimes caused by the ground point behind the radiator on the passenger side being dirty.
When did these problems start?
