PS. the car sat for a while so thats y i changed the fuel filter/pump and oil/oil filter |
HAVE AN 89 FORMULA 350 TPI. I JUST WENT THROUGH THIS. (VERY FRUSTRATING) FINALLY TOOK MINE TO THE SHOP. NARROWED THE PROB DOWN TO THE FUEL INJECTORS. THEY SAID RESISTANCE TESTED FINE COLD, BUT WHEN TESTED HOT 4 OF THE 8 WOULD LOSE RESISTANCE THUS NOT FIRING PROPERLY. THEY QOUTED ME GET READY $2400. SO I PICKED UP MY CAR WENT HOME CALLED JEGS MAIL ORDER. THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED 21# INJECTORS SO I PURCHASED A SET OF ACCEL BRAND 21# INJECTORS FOR $278.00, TPI INTAKE GASKET SET $40. FOLLOWED THE SERVICE MANUAL AND WAS DONE IN ABOUT 4 1/2 HOURS. THEY WERE RIGHT, STARTS EVERY TIME NOW, JUST PASSED SMOG YESTERDAY. STOAKED
