initial idle?
 
How long does it usually take for the ecm to relearn?
It's been about two weeks and i've definately gone over 50 miles since i did some intake repairs.
The initial idle sometimes fluctuates when i first start it. it eventually evens out but it's kind of anoying.

Hi,
Try resetting the battery for 15min. This will reset the computer, and hopefully will get things back to normal after once you reconnect the battery.

Bye!

Here's how I reset mine:
Disconnect the battery for 20 minutes.
Hook it up, disconnect the IAB.
Insert a .040 feeler guage between the TB adjust screw and the throttle.
Start the engine and adjust for 750 RPM.
Turn off engine, remove feeler guage and reconnect IAB. Check TPS for .9 volts.
Restart engine with no accessories on and let idle for two minutes.
Tunr off engine for two minutes.
Restart engine with all accessories on, let idle for two minutes.
