I can't remember...
Also, could it cause a bad idle? I'm gonna be changing it out this weekend, so I want to know what to expect.

This should not be to hard to find whats wrong, Get a Fuel pressure Gage and Check it. someone in Ohio should have one you can barrow.
And also, Have you Ever changed your Fuel Filter?

I'm pretty sure I changed it in August when I did a full tune-up, but I'll check that when I'm down there. I'll just buy a pressure gauge from AZ, it can't be that expensive...

There like $25-35
I would see if you can Barrow one first. its hard to return something that smells like Gas
and to test it right, you need to Mod it
