And since cruiser is here, how straightforward is a C101 delete? Just label all the wires on both sides, remove brackets, and solder? I assume there's a hole there big enough for all the wires?

No hole needed. Solder and shrink tube. Not sure it's worth it but others have done it and been pleased with the results. As a matter of fact, a buddy of mine did it because he had driveability issues and I hooked up my DRB to his 88. Showed a poor reading from the CTS. We wiggled the C101 and the reading was good. Wiggled again and it was bad.

Having trouble diagnosing a misfire/backfire, and problems are compounding. Started it up after work and it was idling at what sounded like 2k+ RPMs. Vacuum lines are all good. Tapped on the C101 a few times, and it dropped to the lowest and smoothest I've ever had it. Still backfiring, though.

Right. I had the right part; wrong purpose in my head. I've wiped it down and sprayed it with electronics cleaner a while ago, but I haven't fully cleaned it. I figured I'd bypass if it isn't a problem, and then I wouldn't have to worry about it. Would you advise against that?

Of the NSS is really bad he may need to push his shift level with a lil force towards the dash. Mine is gummed up bad and the only way to start is to hold the shifter forward. Eventually I need to remove and clean when the weather gets warn

At first, I thought that was directed toward my high idle issue. I was gonna ask how I should push my column shifter towards the dash and what it would accomplish
My nss is dirty sometimes it needs put in neutral to start it
