My car was doing exactly that. I cleaned the MAF and throttle body and this resolved the issue.

Thanks for the tips; I made a short list and showed them to my local Indy
I’ll post the results when he completes the repair.

Local Indy found an InterceptLink Air Flow Meter Correction module wired to the CPU
See pic
Also replaced Oil seperator and air filter; runs like new car !
I’ll upload a pic later...
My HC results in smog tests have been near the cut off limit the past 4 times the car was smogged; wondering if this device caused that too ?
