welp, spent some time with the rig today but no luck.
installed new plugs, plug wires, cap 'n rotor. tried a different AFM, and
different injector resistor pack (for the hell of it).
Did a compression test and everything is all good there. cylinder #1 seems
weak, disconnecting the plug wire, rpm drop is there, but less then all the
others.
also, with o2 sensor plugged in (idling at 1800), disconnect the TPS and
idle falls to 1000.
