OK y'all here it is.
Yes I did search and no I haven't pulled codes yet.
Most of the surging issues I found in search point to the TPS but I really don't want to go there if I don't have to. What I'm doing this weekend is pulling the plugs and cleaning/regapping them, that may not fix it but it can't hurt to try. I'm also looking for a possible vacuum leak. What she's doing is surging and jumping about 100-300 rpms when cold. After she's warmed up really good (about 30 min of driving) most of this, sometimes all of it, goes away. She is also running higher on the RPMs than usual, like she's lacking power (about 3000 @ 60 instead of 2750/2800). Could the vacuum modulator be going south? (its a C6 tranny) and if so, do you have to drop the pan to change/check it? Between class and work time is at a premium here and money is tight. I was laid off just before Thanksgiving and just started working again on the 3rd so I haven't been paid yet (hence the cheap maybe fixes I'm trying). Am I on the right track or pissing in the wind?
