Who fixed thier idle surge/low rpm hesistation?

I havent Any clues on what it is? I have no clue still, but it is temp related because it takes a longer amount of time to do it when is cold outside for my car to do it. I am leaning toward o2's because after the car warms up it becomes less responsive when revving at idle and after you come to a stop the idle gets a little jump (maybe 100 rpms movement) after you sit for a ten seconds or so. I am thinking the O2's are cooling off and getting lazy. I am gonna buy a scanner soon though before i go stabbing aimlessly...

Can the opti affect ONLY the idle? I though it would also affect other rpms. Car has no misses. The other day after two hours of driving though it stumbled when it shifted going in to OD. second time that happened....rpms were at about 1700-2k.

This subject kinda died and was wondering if the fix came up.

All my stumbles problems have been electrical ones,


You do yourself a favor, (if you think is electrical)get 41-906 AC delco plugs and the original wires also.. I have run with one , none and custom made wires to extend the o2 sennsor(becasue the long tubes) and never had any problems with hesitations because of the o2..

also I tried bosch 4+ for my lt1 in one of thoose man y problems that I had and the bosch lasted for only 3 days!@

A new IAT sensor ($8.99 at Autozone. Don't freak out, it has a brass body vs stock plastic, but it's the right part) fixed my low-speed, low-load stumble.

I had the same problem, fixed it replacing my TPS on the pass side throttle body, it's plastic/metal internally and eventually wear out.
