Damit, I had nightmares after reading the above posts...NOT !

Do you have ABS ?? YES ? That may be where your problem air is.

Plugged off EVAP lines won't cause your running problem. Plugged off 'most' vacuum lines won't cause your problem.

Look for a vacuum leak at the intake manifold gaskets by (during idle) spraying some WD40 or brake cleaner spray along the gaskets.

Is the EGR stuck open ??

And actually, as you will learn in class sometime, the 7M PCV system is very functional, and virtually trouble free.

A PCV valve meters the air going into the intake on every engine that has one. The valves get oily and can plug up, which is VERY BAD for the engine.

The 7M's system has a fixed (calibrated, designed in) orifice that does the same thing. You should check the tubes and clean the orifice every year. A 5 minute job.
