I caved recently and sent the SEL to the spa, which has taken
care of the worst of the miscellaneous fluid leaks.  I hope.
When I took it in to get licensed it failed its stink test,
due to its intermittent high idle.

That old thing.

I did some research and decided to try moving the brass
plug in the idle air valve, which I'd already cleaned and
found seemingly functional on the test bench.  I also resoldered
the OVP relay, which did _not_ want to open.  These two measures,
at least, were suitable to try at home.  After this I tried the
car again, and it seems to hold a nice low idle, even when hot.

I'll try the licensing thing again tomorrow.
