What it does (aside from variable idling in park-- which I can live with) is rumble at highway speeds.
speeding up 10-20 slight rumble on acceleration (like plug problem)
speeding up 20-40 no problem
sustained speeds (holding gas petal steady) obnoxious rumble and slight hesitation to remain constant.
speeding up 40-60 no problem
sustained speeds (again) obnoxious rumbe and slight hesitation to remain constant.

This seems like a throttle body issue-- to clean not only the injectors, make sure to get some carb cleaner in the TBI, plenum, check the MAP and ACI functionality.
Any one have a similar problem, are are there indicators here that definately rule out (say the plugs-- which I checked and adjusted)

Mine would slow due to a miss under power at highway speeds, was thr Ign. modual.
Also, my up and down idle in Park, was fixed with a new MAP sensor
