If low vacuum is the problem, maybe you could add a vacuum pump just like my
2000 Volvo Turbo S40 had. It was there to produce an increased amount of vacuum
because the engine did not produce enough while cold.
Just an idea.

The problem is low vacuum. The computer is having trouble figuring out what
to do.
I had the Hughes .520/.544 in my 5.2 and had the same issue.
I guess a computer reprogramming may be in order. Let me know if you come
up with another
fix for this problem.
