    the fat hose off the front of the TB turns back to the evap solenoid, fix that, it could be your problem, i used a fat 4 inch piece of line that fit the tube on the TB, then stuffed a smaller line inside the fat one, then to the stock plastic line.

    like this.

    Ok, I didn't inspect the whole hose, but it's the one connected right behind the iac. The part that plugs into the nipple had a tear in it.

    fix that, its a rather large vac leak. tape wont hold up well, not in this cold weather. vac line is less then a dollar a foot. cheap stuff.

    Just chiming in one more time, this could be my alternator. A few months ago I heard a loud whistle almost like a dog whistle while accelerating and I read that it could be an alternator going bad. It hasn't whined for awhile, but I'm going to get it tested tomorrow.
