At the moment I can not recall the idle or fuel pressure but I do not remember them being out of the ordinary when I did the tune up. The voltage is about 13.8v and the gas mileage is great, the last trip I took in May and I got about 30 mpg. I will recheck the idle and fuel pressure, then redo the tune up proceedure. Thanks for narrowing my possibilities.
