Welcome to the type 3 list.

This is likely to be something simple, but you will have to narrow it down. 
There are plenty of people here who can help you do that.

Do you have (or can you borrow) a voltmeter?

You should own a copy of the Bentley manual. I can send you details if you 
don't know what this is.

Make sure the hose to your pressure sensor is connected on both ends.

This is the perfectly normal response to the idle being set too high. It 
confirms that much of the FI is working properly.
