Also, just to check my understanding...right now, when the car is cranked, I watch the the metering plate and it barely moves at all. My understanding is that in that case, the FD is opening very little or not at all yet somehow fuel is getting in to the cylinders. Maybe it's possible the pressure is too high thus causing the arm to not deflect enough and so there's not enough fuel to ignite in the cylinders? This seems unlikely though given that there's enough fuel that it drops out of the exhaust. Is there another place the fuel can be coming from? I've tried with the cold start valve plugged and same condition.
