95 lesabre extremely rough idel

i have a 95 lesabre that idles really rough. idles at about 1000 rpm when warmed up and doesnt drop below that. once accelerator is pressed, car runs great with a small amount of vibration but no noticeable loss of power. Just idles really rough. I have been doing the Ol' parts swap thing for a bit to no avail. I have changed IAC, EGR, lower intake manifold gaskets and upper intake manifold, ICM, all three of my coils, wires, plugs, FPR, and pcv. Maf seems to be working properly and all injectors are firing. No noticeable oil or coolant consumption. Have no idea where to go from here. HELP!!! Thanks.

Re: 95 lesabre extremely rough idel

do a compression check on the cylinders you could have a blown head gasket or check your 02 sensors

Any codes set?

Compression test?

Done a coil output test?

Run the car with the MAF disconnected?

Since it is a 3.8, disconnect one injector at a time, to see if you can isolate a cylinder.....

Re: 95 lesabre extremely rough idel

While all injectors may be firing, that doesn't mean that they are all delivering the same volume of fuel, and also doesn't mean that they are all providing a clean, conical spray pattern of atomized fuel instead of streaming. These problems are frequently only noticed at idle since air inlet velocities at higher engine speeds help atomize the fuel from streaming or dribbling injectors.
