My k5 occasionally suffers from what I have heard referred to as the "lean stumble". It dies at idle when at a stop light or something after being warmed up. Cranks right back up and runs fine. Happens probably less than 10-5% of the time.

I am going through the usual culprits, egr, fuel pressure regulator, fuel filter, and I am going to try to test the trouble codes when I get home tonight. I have ordered an ALDL cable and scanner so I can start getting more involved with my TBI setup, but that is not really what this post is about.

While googling this problem I came across a couple of pics like the one below. I have this bladder thing and the linkage, but no spring or arm to connect the throttle linkage to the bladder. I do not know what the bladder thing is and cannot find what it is called in any manuals so I can google it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
