That's really useful info. I may buy a Vanistan VSM + TB. Interesting to
note the red LED he includes. Seems I"m not entirely crazy (connecting an
LED to throttle valve switch prooved useful).

Dennis: I'll check the evap valve operation. Engine off, purple and white
hose hold a vacuum. I recently found my MightyVac vacuum hand pump. I
imagine it might be useful.    ;^)

I still have a very rough idle or stall, engine cold, after driven about 2
blocks. And, the idle goes up, down, up, down, then settles at first start.
Odd.

Thanks!

Neil.
