She idles well, not perfectly smoothly, but never hesitates and doesn't die - except during the first 30 seconds post cold start.

Mileage is ok, about 22 mpg on the highway, 15-16 commuting and around town.

I was wondering about the fuel accumulator - not sure if that can be tested; but it is supposed to maintain the fuel pressure/volume when the engine isn't running.
