ken,
I had the same problem 2 weeks ago. Here is how you fix it...
There are some vacuum tubes by the throttle body mounted to the firewall.
There's a little green cap on it. Check those tubes to see if one is loose.
They simply push on... no clamps. Your problem lies there, and I'll bet you
a happy meal thats what it is!!!
