I'm willing to let it go for an appropriate price. Not asking for a lot and always willing to talk.

Re: EPROM Change Needed?

Correct. I believe the first year for a manual transmission for a TPI engine was 1987. Most likely, I'm going to have to upgrade the ECM is what it is sounding like...

Are ECM's from that era...

EPROM Change Needed?

I double checked the base timing and it is where it should be. It is a 1985 IROC with TPI, I removed the 700R4 and replaced it with a T-5. Car runs great at low rmps, while accelerating and at...

Re: CO Emissions high on '85 w/TPI

My fuel pressure is good, plugs weren't great but I replaced them. AIR system is working properly, MAF seems to be working properly. Only part left that is questionable is the cataclismic...

Re: CO Emissions high on '85 w/TPI
