so im trying a few things. i read an article about the fuel pressure regulator going bad. someone was having the same issues i was, they brought the regulator in for the night to keep it warm and put it back first thing in the am, started the car, the problem went away so he replaced the unit and all was ok. sounds weird, half bad regulator.

 

I cleaned the maf today and all my idle issues went away, for now. hope it was the problem. i guess what is going on is that the sensor is gets coated with a thin film of oil because the previous owner re routed the pcv to the air intake so i guess the next project after the axle is to get the pcv back to stock. thanks for everyones input.
