Idle problems.

Ok, ive come into some idle problems. My main question is about what should my settings be during idle for my primary injectors? Theyre 550's. The car, was udling fine, one time I was driving it, and the next time It wont hold an idle at all. I tried adjusting the idle maps to no avail. I took off my upper intake the other day and found a few cracked vaccum caps, so I replaced them. The car also had about 2 year old gas in it. The fuel system is seeing about 40psi. I know there are now no intake leaks. So all I have left are some settings I possibly messed up. Im going to replace the furl filter tomorrow. I just remember seeing the injectors firing from 3-5st when I was fluttering the throttle to get it started.

Any suggestions?

make sure that your tps is reading 0%. if it aint then its not using the idle map. for mine to idle it needs to be around 1.9 or so. in the idle map it is set around 1.0 or a little higher but with al lthe other corectiions and staging it ends up beiing around 1.9 to 2.0. also what timing value you got for idling? cant remember offhand but i believe mine is like 25 or 30
