It's always something "simple" as in what you would have never though.

Drunk back in the days? When and where? How do I know you?

It's just the process of going through and figuring this thing out. Its actually my wife's car and since she's had it, it's had quite a few issues as of late. I've had a Nissan, but didn't keep it very long, 2005 Spec V and realized this is one car Nissan dropped the ball on, so I traded it for a GTO. Anyway, I'm starting to wonder if some of these problems are from the bad IAT. With it reading such a high resistance it's seeing the intake air as extremely cold. If it's dumping large amounts of fuel because of this I would think that would be enough to choak it off at idle, especially considering it has been 80+ here still. I'd rather not just start adjusting the idle if it's just a bandaid fix to another issue.
