Today, it started to seek an idle speed after putting it in park, up around 1500 to down around 1000 and so on. No CEL. I smell gas, like it's running righ, during these times. When I'm running around town, it doesn't do this.

Sounds like you could have a problem with the throttle position sensor.

TPS was repalced last year, it threw a CEL immediatly. Focusnme had a similar problem, ended up being a power steering pump sensor. I havn't had a DPFE problem, so I'm kind of hoping that's what it is.
