Flat running



First, I'd like to apologize to anyone in Maryland and the adjoining 
states for the downpour that happened today.

It must have been my fault as I had -just- finished washing and 
detailing both the PT Cruiser and the DeLorean.

Second, I took the D out for the first extended test run. (around the 
block instead of around the parking lot) I have installed the new 
injector seals.

The issue is, I have a pronounced lack of power. Flat acceleration. 
My WOT microswitch sticks so I disconnected it. I know that's part of 
it, but it lacks even more than that. I really don't think I have a 
vacuum leak or series of vacuum leaks that are causing this. It's 
idling much better now that the new seals are in.

My suspects are: timing advance failure, combined with the absence of 
the WOT microswitch, and/or maybe some smaller vac leaks. Any 
additional suspects are welcome.
