The SharkTuner would show actual temp being used by both LH and EZk, so it would instantly show up the false LH reading, by comparing it to the EZK value.
The Shark tuner would show all kinds of values and would clue me in on certain things to check. Could be Temp II, TPS, etc. If they were all in spec/functioning, I would then investigate other items like the fuel pressure regulator, Dampner.
One other thing I neglected to add to my update... As the car was running I was looking at the sparkplug wires (They are brand new Beru). None of them were fully seated on the plugs. I don't know why I didn't catch this before. They were all flush with the cam covers instead of slightly recessed - probably becasue they are brand new. I could not push them down by hand and had to use a light mallet to tap them home. While I doubt this was the main cause, it could be a contributor.
