Hunting Iroc, not the good kind.

Hey guys,

Im posting again with some questions to hopefully get some good answers like last time.

I recently bought an 87 Iroc z with the l98 5.7 tpi..

The car didnt run when i bought it, and with some elbow grease (money) and some expertise (head scratching and thirdgen.org searching) I got it running.

So basically i had to replace the dizzy pickup and the ignition control module, and bam. Started.

AS OF RIGHT NOW: Its hunting at idle when cold, fluctuating quite drastically in RPM's.

THE QUESTION IS: When i pulled off the IAC connector, there seemed to be oil in the connector. Is that a red-flag saying THIS IS BROKEN?

Any help would be appreciated!
