I am a new member and have been working on this over 1 yr. This is what i have replaced so far, new points and plugs, put back on vac advance on distributor new fuel pump and filter all new fuel lines and vacume lines no leaks, #2 sensor by # 3 cylender, new oil sensor by distributor. timed at 3500 rpm white mark is +5 degrees off cold or hot.
When the engine is cold will run fine after 30 min driveing when you stop for any reason it dies have to give it a little gas to start back up. with new oil sensor oil light lites up at 1200 rpm then goes away ay higher rpm oil is full.
04/25/04 can adjust the mixture at the throttle valve but the ecu wuold not adjust took the ecu apart the pointometer adjuster was broke inside Will replace the ecu it does smell like burnt electrical.
the only thing injection wise that has not been replaced is the trigger points, ECU, pressure regulator and the Pnuematic decelleration valve, you can remove the vac hose on the dec valve when warm and the car will stay running.

Any Suggestions (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

You can get rid of the decel valve. It's just for emissions. Give that a try and see if it helps. Have you tested the Manifold Pressure Sensor (MPS)? Could be that it's not holding a vaccuum, so the car would be running really rich. What does the car idle at when cold? Should idle high (around 1800rpm, I think) when cold, then as the car warms up the idle should decrese to about 900rpm. It could be that your cold idle is set too low. Also if you haven't seen this page before, check it out.
