The rods are fairly consistent with little to no movement when in Park or neutral or but will bounce when in Drive with no chance of staying put at all. I have not bumped the timing yet so that will be next. I raised the rods and held them up with no change in he idle quality. I am going with the assumption that in no way is it lean at idle. Just got back from a 45 mile drive and the car runs absolutely great other than the idle. No flat spots or laying down in any gear at all past 6500.
