You need a scan tool, or you're flying blind. It sounds like its rich, but fixing it without a scan tool will be pure trial and error, and risky, too. First thing would be to set the IAC and TPS, to make sure that the car is right at idle, and near idle. That is not risky, and you can set the IAC and the TPS without a scan tool. Check fuel pressure, you didn't mention what that was, if it's more than 45, hose off, lower it. But lowering fuel pressure is the part that gets risky without a scan tool. Easy to get too lean, too much knock, too much KABOOM!!
