IDLE SCHMIDDLE!

Since your twist on the no guts/rough idle syndrome occurs at a specific RPM range, maybe a Throttle Position Sensor clean job is in order. If interested, do a search on TPS cleaning (I think Trevor or other common poster). Involves removing TPS, then squirting electronics aerosol spray solvent into small hole in TPS (while rotating sensor shaft back and forth) to clean electronic "rheostat" inside. Pretty easy to do!

Good Luck

P.S. Have you cleaned your throttle body and AIC? A little harder to do, but highly recommended by many here for a plethora of ailments!
