fuel leak was a return line plug having gotten spit out. concequence of adding a couple psi of positive fuel pressure. I wonder if any others will pop off now that a new plug is clamped in.
Reconnecting the battery with the key on disabled the alarm. remote refuses to work. Forgot my diagnostic laptop up in Rochester so going to probably ignore the rest of this until later so I can properly diag all the switches in the doors too, but at least it's drivable again..
