TOY: Re: '85 Toyota 4Runner -- idle irregularities

["Erik Bibelheimer" <thebeebs@xxxxxxx>]

Does it do it only when the brake pedal is pressed?

My 4runner did something similar only when the A/C was on and the brake was
pressed. I pulled the brake wire going to the ECU and it stopped...
I don't know if your problem is the same, but here is a good description of
what was going on with mine:
