86 420 SEL Surge and miss

With halp gotten here I've managed to get the power seat working. A little shot of contact cleaner was all it took!

Next problem:

I notice the car has a small miss and tends to surge a little at idle as well as when coasting. I really noticed it going down a small incline, felt almost like the brakes were being applied lightly then released.

Any help is appreciated.

Is this something that can be cleaned with a little contact cleaner, adjusted or is it strictly replacement time?

420 sel surge & miss

One common culprit for surge and slow going down hill is the cruise control; disconnecting the plug in switch by the speedometer connector behind the instrument panel is sure bet to stop problem; instrumenrt cluster needs to come out.
