hoping tomorrow before it gets too hot-got a few volt meters -one is digital-so maybe that one will work?

[jr32560]

may have to play with the mini mig again tomorrow

[jr32560]

if i get it adjusted and it still idles funny when cold -I'm checking for vacuum leaks next

[dustybumpers]

weld me up one of these

[jr32560]

or check the temperature gauge sending unit-i have heard of them being inoperable and causing cold start problems-makes the engine think it's already warmed up?

big time. keeps it from going closed/open loop. don't think that is your problem though, your gas mileage would be horrible from that, yours is almost too good.
