OK, so I fixed the plugs, got the whole kit w the vcg, uvch, and replacement connectors for the harness. I took the harness right out, soldered and used that heat shrink stuff. i took some if the old tape off the harness and replaced it with new tape and zip ties too.

also, iv swapped the icp w one off a 94.5 and no difference, still has that idle issue, i was kinda hopping when i put the injectors in it would fix the problem, since 6/8 of my old o-rings were bad, but apparently that didn't smooth out the idle...

It can be a huge pain...especially when every truck is different and the farther you get from stock, the more picky every truck becomes.

I responded to your email.
