Several things at once...
Well, there was indeed a blown fuse (don't know how I missed it when I first looked)... replacing it fixed the radio and interior lights... but did nothing for the acceleration problem.
Drove it a bit this morning, and it seemed fine... at first. After a few miles, the acceleration problem started again... so, since I was in the area, I took it to my mechanic to have him take a quick look. We decided to start with the fuel filter - turned out it was almost completely clogged. So, we thought we had nailed it... I drove off and it seemed fine... for a few miles, then the problem resurfaced so I turned around.
After a little more testing and tinkering, we think we found a slight leak in one of the air control hoses (I think that's what it was, can't remember the exact name of it right now). Anyway, it was appearing to be a lean misfire problem, and spraying a bit of quickstart around that hose resulted in a brief increase in idle RPM. So, now I have to wait for him to get the hose and install it... we're hoping that'll do it... since the fuel pumps seem to be operating fine. My fingers are crossed.
Thanks,
Scott
