Ok I got a 90 fox that is surging It does it realy bad in the morning when cold and when I try to drive it kinda putts and sometimes it surges alil when warmed up. I already changed intakes and the gaskets tb gaskets iac and gasket egr gasket ignition module and tried a few distribuers also tried a differnt tps I also cleaned maf and tried a stock one it has a simi new fuel pump bout 2 yrs old I tried to bump timeing nothing seems to work. But if I advance timing hella far like past 20 or if I create a vacume leak it idles fine this is crazy sh*@ [ January 05, 2010, 04:20 PM: Message edited by: BLK 90 GT 5.0 ]

Try doing the base idle reset. I kinda had the same issue and that's what fixed it
Disconnect the iac and start the car. Play with the idle set screw until the car will idle on its own without dying. then set the idle to the lowest possible setting. Shut off the car. Reconnect the iac & Disconnect the Neg terminal on the battery for 3-5 mins. Start the car back up and let it idle for a few minutes and go drive it. See if that helps.

so when you create a vacuum leak and advance the timing it is ok? The vacuum leak will lean it out some because the engine is sucking in air that is not metered and not adding the fuel it needed for that air. What do the plugs look like without the vacuum leak?

Try disconnecting your EGR vacuum tube. Plug the tube with a golf tee. See if that helps. Just, curious. I had real bad part throttle surging and bucking issue and this is what I did. The car drives so smooooth now. I know there is still some kind of issue with the EGR opening up to much and I will get back to that soon.
