I checked the hoses like people said and found the idle air control hose disconnected. The plastic clip was broken and when I when to start the car it blew it out. On page 110-7 fig 17 there is a picture of the piece. For a 14 year old car it has held up. When you guys rebuild your motors do you replace any pieces like this one? Everyone should look at this piece to make sure it will not come off. A stupid plasic piece can leave you stranded out on the road. Do I just call bma and ask them for this part or has anyone replaced this piece before and have a part Number. Are there any other pieces like this one that should be replaced. I guess I am asking the people that have rebuilt their motors. Since I know that they go thru the engine thoroughly. Everyone should check this inexpensive part.
