Volks, Tested the FI today per instructions in the Clymer. (great instructions) everything came out more or less fine. Found that the little switch on top of the throttle body was bent not allowing it to engage for full throttle enrichment. Found crummy spray pattern in new aftermarket fuel injector, and replaced with good old one. (Number 2 cylinder seemed to not be firing when pulling wires although there was spark) Seems to run great. I am going to get bigger vac lines from the dealer for the deceleration valve, and all should be well. Took it for a 5 minute spin and it actually seemed to have good power!
