It DOES idle like crap when I start it up and dies a couple times until the engine warms up. Operating temperature is normal (relatively new thermostat) but it idles a bit low (650). Is there a test for leaky injectors or should I simply replace them all? They are original to the car, to the best of my knowledge...
