I agree it would be nice to have it operational (which it has been for 200K)
  What are your thoughts on why two different units give same symptoms (over
2K RPM at idle)?  Haven't noticed any difference with dash lights with the
unit disconnected.

Nice thing about the idle stabilizer; it produces that surge of rpms when

you first start the engine. This kick starts the alternator to turn off

those annoying red lights on the dash.
