Hey guys, my convertible is finally running and driving after extensive repairs. However, it misfires badly under load until engine is close to operating temperature, after that it runs great but idles high (1000rpm). It sat in my driveway for a year then I did everything. She got a new gas tank and fuel pump and fuel filter and new plugs. New cam and crank sensors. Unrelated items include suspension overhaul, brake master cylinder, clutch slave cylinder, alternator and battery.
Thanks for any advice! It's a little annoying to wait 15 to 20 minutes before I can drive it!
Have it smoke checked for vacuum leaks

Did find a vacuum leak but it still ran poorly. I decided to replace the TPS, ICV, and FPR. While doing so I found that the return fuel line was dry and the FPR was pretty well stuck in the rail. After replacing everything (all those items are more easily done by removing the intake manifold so I did them all at once) it ran great!
