OMG... Setting up the idle speed without the IAC made a huge difference in idle quality and drivability!!!
It wouldn't even idle without the IAC plugged in... 1 full turn of the positive stop made it idle at 750rpms steady as could be and when going into gear or sitting in gear for awhile it wasn't surging like it would commonly do. Sometimes it would stall if given just the slightest bit of pedal as well... now all that seems to be gone. My idle AFRs seem to be a bit more stable now as well. I guess the IAC was trying to do all the work.
Thank you very much
@Raymond_B for that piece of advice!
I also added more fuel on the WUE once the engine gets hot to mimic
@FMOS Racing parameters. I'm hoping those 2 changes will help my hot start issues I've been having. It will be interesting to see if the cold start runs smoother with the idle change as well.
