	Boris,
	Blunt and to the point:
	You said the vehicle has done this for 3 years.  Why suddenly it's a

	serious issue?
	You haven't said how many RPM's the idle hunts up and down, you
haven't 
	provided *ANY* scan tool data IE: block learn/integrator (Fuel
learning) 
	values, recomendations have been made and you change the subject in
the 
	next message and skip over the suggestion.
	Troubleshooting *MUST* be done in an orderly manner if it's to turn
up any 
	problems.
	There is a wealth of info on this list and people that are willing
to bend 
	over backwards to help other list members out, but you have to be
willing 
	to take that advice and apply it or you'll get no where.
	The first step you need to take is to buy a service manual so you
can check 
	the basics, Plugs, Wires, PCV valve etc.  the ECM/sensors should be
the 
	last thing checked after all the normal mechanical/vacuum related
items.
