I think I have a good one here. 87 conv with 73k. Out of the blue my car started idling a little high around 900-1000 rpms. no check engine light. I did some research and checked connections on TPS and IAC and listened for vacuum leaks. I also calibrated TPS to spec and reset IAC. Still have same problem. Now to the strange part! The problem was intermittent and just by luck I noticed when the car started to rev above normal my Average MPG display would change to 12.8, and when the revs would start lowering to normal the display will show 0 and run fine. Oh yea, I did remove power to ECM in an attempt to reset which is why I have a 0 for mpg. Also, when I have a high idle and 12.8 display and rev the motor the car will die like its getting no fuel. I do get a check engine when that happens. I can catch it before it dies by pumping the throttle to keep it running. One more thing! I short A+B on diag port and only get a solid check engine light no flashes at all. Any suggestions?
