So I moved some parts over to minivan #2 and made sure most things are working on it. Tomorrow I look into moving the trailer hitch and trailer wiring harness over. Maybe the rear window wiper, too.

Wants to die at stoplights sometimes, just drops down to 600 rpm and I have to blip the throttle to get it to idle at 900 again, but then it stays at 900.
If it has electronic throttle clean the throttle body. If it's a cable throttle the shaft bushings might be worn out and it might be binding or landing in a different spot sometimes.
