I have as above. One day it just died. So far, we changed the plugs. I just had an oil change, changed ignition in distributor, didn't start. Found out coil was bad in distributor but it still didn't start. Than we put in a TPS. First put it in wrong and it started but idled really high, than he put it in the right way and it was idling up and down. The haynes book said to get a feeler gauge? He use the gauge today but now it's ildeing to low and up and down a little but idle is to low. What else can we do?

So its running but its idling low to high?

Check for any vacuum leaks
check ignition timing

remove throttle body
at the bottom of it is the idle control
remove and clean
that should take care of the idling
