I found a vacuum leak at old vacuum block. it was part of a ati system called 7th injector and has fuel injector attached. gasket was shot. decided to replace it with new aluminum block, gasket and hoses. started the car and ran fine and noticed after a few minutes o2 dropped to 5 and code 44...

thank you sir, much appreciated.

thanks will return it. I guess my best bet would be to order ac delco from highway stars or check dealer? im guessing all the ones from autozone etc will be this way. also, is ignition coil from oreilly ok to use or would you recommend just ordering new coil also. thanks

i have a 87 gn. I bought a new coil module connector from oriely auto. got home and was trying to connect to wiring harness. the connector seems to fit but there is a screw that will not go into coil module. looked and my new coil module has a smooth brass fitting and old one is threaded. is...

have tt chip burned for injectors. car only has 70000, not sure about injectors. also have hotwire kit and walbro fuel pump. thank for the info. I'm just looking for a good street set up. chip is burned for 16-18 boost.

looking to get a ta49 turbo. I currently have lucas red stripe injectors rated at 40lbs. also running a duttneck ic. is this enough injector for this turbo or do I need to go bigger?

ok, thanks. need to get a volt meter anyway. will give it a try and thanks to all for all the advice.

I have checked the wiring and it looks good. going to check connections next and be sure before I start taking things apart. I did change the fpr and have not been able to set pressure yet. I don't believe this would stop it from cranking. wouldn't a bad starter be having theses symptoms of slow...

ok, thanks

sorry to sound dumb but could you clarify which threads to coat? the mounting bolts for the starter or cross over pipe?

I have just replaced coil pack, pugs and wires. battery is new. I bought new fpr and replaced turbo gasket, had a leak and exhaust was leaking into engine bay. when I put every thing back together I cranked the car for 30-40 sec with ecm unplugged. it cranked fine. when I pluged it back in and...

when replacing the starter does the cross pipe and fuel lines have to be disconnected? got under the car and does not seem to be enough room to pull starter out. also, car has been sitting for a while and cranked engine to get oil in engine. reconnected ecm wire and will crank a few times and...

i have a cone filter. the barn has a concrete floor and a couple of cats. i started the car every couple of months, just didn't drive it. i have changed oil, plugs, wires and ign coil. i have a new fpr on order. guess i will rty the heet first and see if runs any better.

i changed my fuel filter a couple of days ago and let excess fuel drain into oil catch pan. there was a little oil in bottom of pan. after changing filter i went to retrieve pan and oil was a brown milky color. i let the car sit for about 8 months covered in my pole barn. i just recently paid...

thanks for the help. got to looking at it closer and gasket at turbo is leaking above o2 sensor and small leak on other side. guess this explains why car running like crap. had stock exhaust manifold put on car about a year ago. it looks like they reused the metal gasket and put some kind of...
