OK I went and did this just now. I am assuming that the idle air bypass
thing is that little hole in the throttle body located just next to the small part
of the throttle if that makes any sense. Well i squirted that and the entire
throttle with the carb cleaner and I'm going to let it sit for a day. Thanks
for the advice. Oh the idle switch sounded fine and was connected and all
and I heard it click.
