Likely a vacuum leak.  Double check everything and make sure the TB and IAC are clean.

Problem fixed needed to swap the IAC housing from the 2.5. it's all better know, actually still pulls around 65 (on flat ground that is) next stop #19 injectors and taurus fan.

Any input on a higher amp alternator swap.
