think those problems always turn out to be something else (like the
worn out voltage regulator problem, which makes the engine run rich.)

OK, thanks Jim. I'm dealing with a 71 D-jet system (although a t-4), so
according to the above info, I really don't need to do anything special, other than
not plugging in the injector itself. I was looking at the Bentley FI wiring
diagrams, and the 1st one showed the CSV relay, so I was thinking they all got
one. I guess I should have read more and turned a few pages. :O From
everything I've read on the list over the last 5+ years, the very early cars didn't
get a CSV, then it got added as the system was refined. This is a summer only
car (no top), and hopefully it shouldn't be that cold when I'm using it. : )
Thanks for all the help.
