rough/shaky idle
Hi,
240 Volvo w/ 155,000 miles. Idles a tad rough but smooths out when you accelerate. You can go to the back of the car and it sounds like it has a small misfire.
Took off and cleaned throttle body, new plugs, wires, cap and button. Replaced all 4 injectors w/ upgraded 4 hole Bosh. Also found a broken motor mount so replaced mounts as well as tranny mount and removed and clean the air mass flow sensor as well.I also checked signal going to injectors with a noid lite and all seems good but....I can pull off the injectors wires and get a response from engine idle all all three except the front one. I pulled the wire off the air mass and engine runs rough and then gets better when I hook it back up. Idle surges up and then goes back down to the rough idle. Any ideas from here would be most appreciated...

Yesterday I searched for vacuum leaks by spraying starting fluid around hoses, manifold ect. Found a spot right on the top front of the intake manifold when i sprayed the RPMS reved up. So I suspect a failed gasket is the problem?
