tough? low idle question not found with MUCH googling...'91 honda accord manual

91 ex wagon manual....runs extremely well except for low idle when
parked, at light , stopsign etc...
oh yeah, idles rough at 1000 rpm...initially at startup around 1300 but quickly drops and stays at 1000....not smooth at all here.

did, i thought, thorough vacuum leak tests...nothing
restarted computer with removing fuse, neg. battery line
checked pcv, cleaned out butterfly/throttle etc...
new air filter
egr seems to be working but could not confirm 100%...same with map
sensor

stumped
any help? THANKS!

Is the car throwing a CEL? If so what codes are you getting?

Yes.

A paper clip.

Use it to jump the two pin connector located at the passenger side foot panel inside the car.

Most people and my Haynes say it's green, I have a 93 and mine is blue.
