Hey Chris, nice to hear from you!!

Here's what happened as I started the car cold today.

1) As I turned the key from ignition to start the pressure dropped from 43 to zero, and then after 3 attempts it fired up and maintained 43 psi for the most part. This is normal, she never starts first turn when cold. I have a chip coming from JMS, should that help Chris??

2) But since she doesn't catch an idle right away (idle wanders from almost dying to 1200 rpm), I had to feed her and the pressure fluctuated slightly with the idle until it found one, which takes a while.

3) When I shut her down the pressure took about 1.5-2.0 seconds to drop to zero.

BTW Chris, she FINALLY has 800 miles on her and I was planning on putting a new set of plugs and an oil change to a synthetic. Do you think it's time for synthetic and if so, what the best stuff out there?

Thanks!!
