my engine has a bit of annoying problem...the engine when started floods and if it drops low on rpms, it dies. now i have a scanner and checked for codes. i got the knock senser, MAF, and i do believe the O2 senser. i say i believe so becasue its been since last november i've done any work with the car. i replaced the knock senser and the mass air flow. didnt help so i replaced the ECM, and it didnt help either. the only thing im thinking of is that maybe the ECM i got was bad. oh and when running, raw fuel comes out the exhaust...thanks i would love to get it running again
i'll have to get back to you on that one. my battery is dead and i'm not going to deal with it, so i'll check tomorrow if i can. hard to find time between school and work.
stuck open injector. are you running stocK injectors 23 years old? its fuel related. that be cool to blow flames out the pipe, id have a killa time with that. But i wanna say stuck injector. test the Resistance on each injector. it takes about 45 minutes. i use a needle pin to carefully remove the clips. or the easy way would be to attach a fuel pressure gauge on the rail and prime her. shouldnt drop. past 32psi/max 45
