Ok fella's second part resolved as well........part about fuel press being too high.......The press gauge was wako, you see, I installed it a while back during the other episode and left it in place, it showed 20 PSI with motor not running, I figured residual pressure......Nope!......was stuck. So 30PSI would read 50 PSI. Like I need this!....

It wasn't very dirty inside, just the usual old oil last run through the engine, but I wanted to take no chances. Also installed a new oil pressure light switch, and cleaned the case around the cooler and switch.
Wrong thread dude!

hi, longbeach , for your fast idle , disconnet the cold start injector , if the power stay on for all the night , your cold injector can burn and stay open , or your cold temp sender can burn , wend you disconnect the cold injector and if the spead comme normal , do the test on the two colt temp sensor ,,albert

ya, ya.......I am just not going to leave one in permanently Although I thought it was a neat idea. This obviously screws them up, cheap crap!......I'll just test, then put away.
