Erratic idle

Changed plugs, wires, discap & rotor, no codes, new air filter, could it be the injectors?

Idle air control would be the first thing id clean/replace. Its on top of the throttle body with to wires out the side. Or could be an intermittent vacuum leak.

If its not the IAC check your intake manifold gaskets there might be a leak.

Oxygen sensor could be borderline also, erratic idle was the first symptom on mine well before it turned on the CEL.
