Default E-303 Idles

Well I replaced my head gaskets and a fixed a bunch of little crap on my motor weekend before last.

Turned down the fuel pressure quite a bit, and set the timing to 15.

It idles great now. I have it idling at about 1100rpm when I come to a stop, but when I put in the clutch driving it idles around 1400-1500. I really don't mind. The best thing is that there is NO surge at all, and it doesnt want to consttantly die like it used to.

It idles better with the less timing I give it. Im going to time it back up to around 20, and see how it does.
