Dave,

The gas is from last fall, but I did put Stabil in it before putting it away.  I'll blow through this tank of gas and refill it before I worry too much about the idle I think.

Pretty sure it's running rich because of whatever is happeneing since if I stand behind the car for any length of time my clothes stink.  I had this thing purring like a kitten under all conditions three or four years ago, so whatever is wrong is just very slightly off, and it's probably not a combination of things.

Andy

Did you put fresh gas in it? I've found that gas as old a six months will impact 
ow the car runs in strange ways. 
Could be a fouled O2 sensor too.

  However, after driving for awhile and the temp gets up, when you roll to a 
top it warbles and every now and then surges slightly like it's going to seek.  
hen it settles down to a slightly rough idle, sometimes surging every few 
econds.
 
-> Any good ideas where to start?
