      Decided to just save money and put some springs in the back. Quick fix, only took an hour and a half or so. Has a fair amount of rake now, doesn't look too bad though. I dont think the front air springs go up as high as they should so that probably accounts for some of it.

      Also got the passenger side door open. One of the latches got bent back into the door, ended up having to kick it really hard to get it open, then put the latch back in place. Will work on getting it to run right with the defroster, etc. on tomorrow then it will pretty much be ready for winter.

          I cleaned out the IAC today, it was idling erratically. Also i checked the voltage last night and it was 14.1 idling with no accessories on, and 12.5 with the heater, headlights, blinker, and defroster on. That seems to be an ok voltage so i'm assuming the alt is fine, put in a newer battery too. Scanned for codes and got a 32, (EVP circuit below minimum voltage of 0.24 volts.) What can be done to fix that, and could that be causing it to run bad? I drove it around earlier and it ran like crap for a few minutes without anything on, then it acted normal when it got warmed up, but when i turned the defroster or lights on it ran bad again. Any suggestions?
