    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    Well, I had a spare ignition module, installed it, did the trick. Lol... cars running fine now for the most part, occasionally it’ll cutout or drop idle randomly, small little hiccups now.. thanks everyone for the help, greatly appreciated!! There’s certainly more work to be done, but the cars...

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    I replaced all my fuse links, and I’ve also replaced my ignition module 3 times already. Gone through with plugs and wires, coil pack, maf, new battery, and my alternator isn’t even 3 years old. It’s not cutting out rapidly anymore. I honestly didn’t think it was the coolant sensor either, but...

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    Well, after months of trying different things, installing a new coolant sensor seemed to do the trick. It makes absolutely no sense to me and it’s honestly the last thing I’d think of. It no longer has the check engine light misfire problem, scanmaster reads no malfunction codes which is...

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    Haven’t done that yet, I checked my fuses a while back that’s really it. But the car hasn’t been sitting for long as of recently, it’s been my everyday driver for 4 years now, if any of the rat shit is still on the car id be surprised. I’ve cleaned it inside and out pretty thoroughly multiple...

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    Different codes each time, my most recent I got 51, 53, 54. And once the car finished it’s bog it returned to 00. I also remember getting 41 and 35. At this point I think I’ve gotten almost half of the error codes pop up and disappear. And fuel pressure rises 1to1

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    So I’ve gone around and done everything recommended by you guys, no luck :( I went ahead and bought some 60s w a turbo tweak chip, in case it was a bad injector, plus I didn’t know what kind of chip I had in the car so it didn’t hurt to install those. My Orange ECM wire was re-routed a while ago...

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    replaced the fuel filter yesterday, made the car run better but didnt solve the problem. pulled the chip out, there was no writing on the back unfortunately.

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    installed the MAF + translator. still surging, but running magnificently otherwise lol. im not that tech savy when it comes to chips so i cant really figure out what kind of chip this is just looking at it.

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    stock MAF. i have the LT1 MAF and the translator, but i havent installed it yet. it has a chip but not exactly sure what kind. My father bought the car back in 2000 and let the car sit in a yard for years, so he has no idea. its got red stripe injectors, thats all i really know :/

    inconsistent surge. hard to pinpoint the problem.

    hey guys ive been having a real hard time pinpointing the source of a bad and inconsistent surge/missfire on my 87 ttype project. ive replaced plugs and wires, replaced the Ignition module, and coil pack just incase it had to do with ignition ( which i dont think it is ). replaced the fuel...

    Alternator/Charging Issue

    I dont believe so. I found one on Kirban, i may look into buying. Do you think that could solve the issue?

    Alternator/Charging Issue

    A while back, about 2 or 3 years ago I had to replace the alternator for my 87 T-type. we have gone through 9 alternators ever since. I know these aftermarket alternators are not the best, some were faulty right out of the box. However, we upgraded to a Bosch Alternator, and the most recent...
