Now that the cooler weather has hit it appears that I am getting some sort of surge or stumble just off-idle. The car was down for about 5 weeks while waiting for a new rear end assembly, but the engine fired right up and idled perfectly right off the bat.
Prior to this waiting period, the engine was not surging or stumbling in the 1500-2500 rpm range like it does now. Basically if I put the car in gear (6-speed) and let it roll at idle in 1st or 2nd it will develop a surge that rocks the car back and forth. To complicate matters, when leaving from a light in 1st and 2nd gear there is a "sloppy" feel to the engine as it revs from about 1500-2500 and then clears up and feels great.
First off, is the cooler weather partially the culprit here, at least on the coasting surge?
Second, I assume a great deal of my problems are related to AE things ever since my injector change back in early summer. The car has always felt somewhat 'flat' in the lower rpms but then pulls well after let's say 3000rpms. Since the AE tables are a little difficult to understand in terms of operation (at least for me they are), is there anyone that can give a very brief overview of where to apply the changes or what to look for? It would be hugely appreciated.
