What do you mean by "set the idle"?
The screw on the TB isn't for idle speed, it's for throttle blade adjustment for minimum air setting.
Since it runs w/o timing wire connected...do the minimum air adjustment procedure with IAC disconnected as Bill outlines.
Set TPS voltage. Then leave the screw on TB alone.

Then try setting the timing for say 5*, then reconnect timing wire and see what happens.
Do you know for certain the .bin has 0*??? If it doesn't your timing will be way off when ecm timing control is connected.
If it runs better @ 5*, try 10*, and see if it's better.

For all that is curious, it's alive!!! Just went on a short drive and holy cow what a difference!!!! Now I just need to get my idle down.... It stays around 1100 in park. It comes down to about 8 to 9 in gear.
