First of all thank you for all your help and patience as I work through these issues on the ‘73 1.7 FI car.

I’m having idle and loss of power issues that I’m trying to get sorted out.

Brand new MPS from Jeff
40 PSI fuel pressure at the pump outlet

Just did a cold start test on the AAR by immediately pulling the hose that goes to the rubber install and I had suction there. That suggests that my AAR is OK and I should keep moving on to other components, correct?

I think your fuel pressure is too high. Have you checked the fuel pressure at the rail? The fuel rail should be about 28 psi.

And, yes, you should have suction at the inlet to the AAR at startup. The suction should diminish over time as the AAR closes. If the AAR doesn't close, you'll have a very high idle once the engine warms up.
