Thanks-

Before I left AZ, I did that (when it had the hard hot start, and stumble when put into/out of gear problem, but the idle was still steady), and as I remember, it was AWFUL w/ the AAM unplugged, but smoothed right up when plugged back in.

I'll have our son do it, though.

The AAM was replaced w/ a new OEM unit about 20k miles ago, and before transporting the car, I sprayed the hot wires with CRC Air Mass Sensor Cleaner (though at the time the car was running/starting perfectly).

Since being in AZ (about a month and maybe 300mi of driving), the problem has progressed from only hot-start problem to other symptoms slowly.

Bob

How SHOULD the car run w/ the AAM disconnected?
