thanks c1800!

i got a fast idle now as mentioned in prev post; yes i need to diagnose these injectors i cant understand how or why they need to have a setting so low its almost carb like. It appears the leaking FPR cannot keep a constant 18lbs pressure, upon me turning up pressure too much fuel is dumping into cylinders causing no start situation, how do i know this?

1. too much oil in the crank case
2. wet fouled plugs - these were, i pulled per planetmans suggestion and replaced with my old plugs and she fired up (with pinched gas line)

not having stock causes these unreliability issues that i just cant stand, i m like wizard, if its not stock set up i dont like it, as you can read the book n info all you want but it wont help.

I want to test one of these injs to find out what the actual pressure rating is, if its 18-20 i might try an aftermarket (sigh!!) setup to manage, however, there's no chance this will work at book rate 28 as i tried that for 6 months before coming on here,

thanks all for your invaluable experience!
