Re: Idle Flare UP
The backfire, knock sensor, etc makes me think "LEAN". Could be as simple as a vacuum "leak" due to torque (lack thereof) on one of the gaskets. Just for fun, go 'round the plenum and check torque on the plenum bolts. If you find a loose one, then too then I'd think about re-torquing the IH bolts too, if the problem persists. (You did plug the IH coolant holes, didn't ya?) Oh, yeah...My brake booster hose caused that one time: got soft on one end, so I replaced it and idle settled down...Just a thought.
Are you sure it isn't just your tires slipping causing the run-up in rpm? (We've noticed you have a little problem getting traction...  But, who am I to say anything, huh???)Did I mention it intermittently running LEAN?   P.
