Okay guys here is a mind bender for you. I have a 1994 Dodge Intrepid 3.5 V6 and it has a bad ruff idle. I have replaced my MAP sensor with no change. I also disconnected the vacuum hose to the fuel pressure regulator and the idle evened out. I replaced that not to long ago. So is that the problem again? If so whats making it keep going out? Please help me with this I can't figure it out.

Check for intake manifold vacuum leaks (usually around cyl's 5 and 6), the 3.5 is well known to have the gaskets get sucked in enough to create small vacuum leak causing a rough idle, the engine usually smooths out when the car is in motion but is rough again when sitting at intersections and whatnot.
