Not sure why, but John's post made me wonder... Have you jump started the car recently? That can do weird things to the LH computer. Typically it just outright kills it, though.

Will change the other relays.
No to the jump start.
I did remove the big ground by the tool kit.
I will double check and clean that.
Could this be an o2 problem.
Exhaust smells rich.
Thats why I was checking MAF ohms. (380)

Wasn't complaining! Just curious to see if he figured it out (with or without our help) for future reference.

If you have never changed the fuel filter, try that.

I dropped the fuel tank last fall and cleaned.
Installed a new filter then.
Fuel lines also.
Plan on swapping replacing some relays and cleaning
some grounds this afternoon.

I cleaned the rear battery ground, and the grounds at
the rear of the valley.
Changed the 3 relays.
The LH relay had 5 prongs on it.
The replacement has 4.
No start.
Jumpered the fuel pump, it pumped.
Put the FP relay back in, I could hear it pump this time.
No start.
Put the old LH relay back in.
It started.
Was the new relay supposed to have 5 prongs?
Or just a coincidence that it started after that.
Let it run for 20 minutes.
Letting it sit awhile.
Will try again in a bit, take a drive if it starts.

Update.
It did start.
Went for a drive, about a mile from home it died.
Coasted to a stop, I could hear the fuel pump running.
It restarted, got me home.
It sits in the garage.
I did notice, when I pushed the clutch to shift,
RPMs would drop to around 250.
I'm thinking it may be LH?
Is there any way to test other than swapping a known good one?
