simple 4ks plug gapping ? and Bentley/hesitation



Hi all,

Well,  I currently only have the Haynes that came with my car rather
than a bentley.  The Haynes does say gapping is important, but I couldn't
find the value in it.  Anyone know plug gap for an '86 4ks?  (For now, I'm
at the .030 that the plugs all came at - seems ok)

Also, how are the bentley's as far as troubleshooting go?  I'm trying to
decide whether I want to lay out that $100.  (cheaper sources, btw?)

Also, being new to cars with FI, is there and equivalent to a choke circuit?
My car runs horrible the 1st few minutes.  Idles ok, and if accelerated VERY
gradually, gets up to higher rpms ok too.  Any mildly quick step on the accel
nearly kills it.    The symptom is not so much rpm related, as one of an
apparent extreme part-throttle (0-1/4 or so) leanness.  Any ideas?

regards
roger
