Idle position switch at throttle body not functioning when engine is hot
(I had this on my own personal van and it drove me nuts because the
switch would work when cold but then go out of adjustment when hot).

HTH.

Idle controller has been change for a used unit. At idle the engine is rough but not running rich.  Good power on higway.  Any ideas?
