    Did you readjust the idle screws?

    That's why its running rich.  When you adjust the idle speed you need to go back through setting the idle mixture again.

    Yeah, it stinks that our brake pedal doesn't control the other guys vehicle.  Over the summer my wife was second from the front of a 5 car line at a red light and someone drilled the last car in line at about 35MPH causing an accordion situation.  First car hit was totaled.  Our FJ has some scratches on the rear bumper (thanks to the protection afforded by the hitch), and the front bumper got messed up.  I used the insurance money to buy a set of ARB bumpers.  If it happened again all the damage would be other peoples' problems.
