I just got the car today,pick it up for 500 bucks.The car will start but it is flooding its *** off.The person i got it from said he put mustangs injectors in but also he said there was use.But idk what it is none off the guages work so i cant get any codes off. I can make a video showing whats it doing if needed.Thanks Tony

the injectors are in it are the same psi as the stock so basically it is stock..would the fuel pressure regulator cause this?

FORD rates them differently than GM ... a 19 lb ford maybe be closer 20 a 21lb GM .... The constant needs to be changed in the prom ( might solve it )

Re: 88 iroc camaro 350tpi getting to much gas?

aight i went out and fix my guages,everything works except for the tach/oil and replace the blown bulbs.i hook up a Gm code reader but i still get nothing from the light?would that be the ecm going bad causing the flooding problem.
