my 91 s10 with a 4.3 that has just recently started this issue. when it is cold ,sometimes ,not all the time it will be idling right where is should be then suddenly it will kick up to around 2000 rpms then kick back down . It does it a few mins later and the check engine light comes on while this is happening to. but once it is at operatng temp it idles just dandy. im not sure what would do that any suggestions?
