I have a 89 Ford Ranger that runs smooth 90% of the time. Every now and then the CHECK ENGINE light comes on and the idle drops so low the motor almost cuts off. The truck seems to have less power when driving... then it will smooth out and the CHECK ENGINE light goes off after a few miles and everything returns to normal. To throw another monkey wrench into the system... every now and then the opposite happens. The idle goes WAY high... when I push in the clutch the motor over-revs and I have to let the clutch out and stay in 4th or 5th gear to drag the rpm's down... when I get the rpm's below 1500 or so the idle kicks in like it should and stays at normal idle until I rev the motor back up above 1500 rpms. Any ideas
