    Surge after Cold Start

    That’s a sweet ride, thanks for posting. Also be sure to check all vacuum lines, I see you have stock boost “Y” hose those get popped off easily and hoses are still pretty old. There are a couple gouges in the throttle body intake hose be sure no leaks there also. With only 4k miles it’s barely...

    Surge after Cold Start

    Hello new member and welcome! You didn’t say anything about age or condition or state of tune how long it’s been doing this how long you’ve had the car. Have you checked out the maintenance section there are a bunch of maintenance issues that need to be tackled to keep things in check with these...

    Aftermarket shifter handle for stock shifter

    Haha! I’m pretty sure that handle is O.O.P. For a while. ps. I have a black sun block film (actually limo-black-window-tint) on my t-tops. Really helps those few times I’m out in blazing sun.

    Aftermarket shifter handle for stock shifter

    I always liked that one, yours looks really good for in use as daily driver all that time! A friend has very similar old one that works great but the newer ones didn't seem to. Thanks! Was wondering if the rod/cylinder mechanism on the car is a "standard push button style" shifter that accepts...

    Aftermarket shifter handle for stock shifter

    Is anyone using aftermarket handles on the stock TR floor shifter? Was looking at the MOMO in classic industries catalog, push button with chrome or black, also there was a Buick specific / billet version that was out for a while (N/A now) but a couple guys I know didn't like how they worked and...

    Lower fuel line connection... o rings?

    I have the upper ones, for regulator and fuel rail, found great info on those each time I needed but can't find anything on lower ones which makes me think there are none? However if they follow the others, the smaller line on the lower set should be 1/16 smaller than the small one up top which...

    Lower fuel line connection... o rings?

    I hope this isn't already posted but can't find it. I'm reconnecting stock flexible fuel lines to the steel lines near power steering. I don't see any o rings on them. Do they need o rings? I can't imagine I took them off last year when I took it apart, but if I did, I can't find the old ones...

    One bad injector??

    Injector and noid light stay on you should get continuity to ground all the time on negative lead. As timinator said wire harness is grounded or driver is bad in ecm.

    PAC alky control install issue

    Hmmm. Never heard of that. Have you been rebuilding the pump every couple years? Nothing against updating the system but pump needs regular attention and pressure verification. Just regular Maintenance. Good move.

    Popping at idle and running rough after battery swap??

    I’d start by looking for an intake leak, backfire may have popped off a vacuum/ boost line or an intake hose. Gotta check really well and use your fingers to inspect push pull things around inspect for holes, cracks too. Will probably find something amiss. Afterward reset the chip per Eric’s...

    Serious Alky pump issues!

    Keep in mind that people write about problems not when everything’s fine. You’ll probably find 50 happy guys for every one with problems. Personally I couldn’t live without it.
