Group praise and unabashed joy

You guys have saved me again. After the tune-up and subsequent problems, the
car is running better than it ever has. My idle is down to 850 RPM and
acceleration is much better (it will improve even more once I take care of a
few more tiny vacuum leaks). My jerry-rigged CPR finally died and I never
recognized it. A quick swap with one from a Volvo dealership and the idle
came down. It also eliminated the rich mixture that made my eyes water when
I would have to be in the engine compartment.
Joe was right about the vaccum solenoid I had purchased, the intake and
outlet tubes were reversed. Having hooked it up exactly like the one I had
before, the car would rev and be over-advanced. A quick tubular swap and it
timing is right on the money.
With the smoother idle and better acceleration, the car is running better
than it has the whole time I have owned it.
Thanks a million guys.
