For me, there are 3 phases WUR temperature:

1. Stone cold, in the morning, 65 degrees in Cal.
2. Burn my hands hot, after the car has been running for 30 minutes.
3. and Warm, when the hot car has been sitting there cooling down for about 30 minutes or an hour.

Cold control pressure is at its lowest (25psi) when stone cold,
Hot control pressure is at 55 psi when hot hot.
And, warm control pressure is anywhere between 25psi and 55psi when warm. If it is always 55psi when warm, the car starts but runs lean, has a hard time trying to idle, and wants to die unless you keep your foot in the gas and feather it. By feathering the gas, you are correcting the lean problem by giving it gas.

Your WUR is bad, either replace it or adjust it. Then adjust your mixture and idle speed. Anything you do now may just cover up the symptoms of a bad WUR, which you already know to be bad.
