Is that the one that turns the fuel pump on? If so then I doubt you did any harm. I think that just gives the fuel pump a constant voltage all of the time rather than varied, which may be why you felt slow. You could have been pretty rich.

No, if you jumpered the initial set coupler and drove the car, you have not hurt anything but your ego. Initial set coupler puts certain items at a set duty cycle so you can adjust your idle without the *certain items* running wild as you make adjustments and driving you out of your gouard. Might be a sp there. Gotta get a dictionary.
