Those are items I'll be taking a look at for general health of components, but my thoughts on the running/idle issues tied into vacuum/fuel.
I ordered up a fuel pump and will get it installed Wednesday. We'll see how it goes from there.
I put a timing light on the car and it's running ~5* at idle. I can't remember off the top of my head the 2,000 and 6,000 RPM numbers, but they fell within spec. I believe they were ~12* and ~29* respectively.
I'll report back once I put the new pump in and do my fuel pressure tests per the manual.
