Have you tried scanning it to see if a code has been stored?

There could still be a stored code without the SES light on.

No, I was just saying because there are so many little things on a 99 454 that could effect idle that it would be easiest if there was a code. That way you wouldn't have to replace part after part until you found the problem.

If no codes then it's time to start checking things like spark plugs, make sure the plug wires are good and aren't short arcing anywhere, check/clean the MAF, check the dizzy, etc. etc.
