Getting the Wheeling Fever

I just changed; coolant temp sensor, coolant switch, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, and I tried to clean out the egr,and I unplugged all other connectors and sprayed electrical cleaner in them.
It still idles at about 2k when cold, it takes about 10 minutes to 'warm up' and then idles at about 900, which I guess is close enough, but all the while it runs like ***** during this cold period, lacks power, and surges like fuel delivery.
Any ideas?

1989 Raider 3.0 5 speed 225K Possible rebuild about 30k ago, no proof.
Dual Bouncy seats, HL washers. New Mud King 235's on 15x7 Crager soft 8's. Dark tint. Superwinch hubs. Herculined Interior.
