You don't want any fresh air to be coming through the A.I.R. lines. Was it idling good for a while with it broken? Was the temperature the same as the bad idiling days? If not, then I would say that it is the source of the problem.

If all that checks out, have you scanned the car for knock, or low fuel volumes? You might have a drop in pressure, like the pump is going out. When it was running fine, was there a slight stumble from take off, or slow speeds?

ok, i capped off the lines, that did not fix it. i checked the fuel pressure and it is consistent even while missing. i dont have a way to check for knocks and im not sure what you mean by low fuel volumes. im going to drop the tank tomorrow, i believe it is something in the tank, taking that it only happens once the fuel level reaches a certain point

thanks,

david

check out the rubber line between the pump and metal line on the sending unit. see if it is loose. check the pulsator also.
