What voltage do you get at pin 3 on the X11 round diagnostic port? Mine is about .4VAC I think typically .4 to .6.

By the way "starved for fuel" is not enough gas - plenty of air, and "choking" is plenty of gas - no air, opposites. Pulling the plug on the icv opens the air passage, mine raced so I knew it was too rich. Fun stuff, I lov these cars.
Yes I was quite confused by it all, seems as though I do that to myself when I am not perfectly sure what is happening. The fuel problem was not completely clear to me,one moment it seemed as though it was starving and the next flooded.
