Re: code 45

Do you ever 'top off' the tank? Fuel will back up into the evap canister.

Exhaust leaks will play havoc with the system as well.

Re: code 45

What else is going on? Throwing parts at it isn't the way to fix it. Do you have a fuel pressure guage?

Re: code 45

Whoa hold on a minute, this is what the injectors you're using look like? Wish I would've taken a look at these at the start, they're not correct. These are intended for later motors and won't run correctly. Get a refund and make sure they know to change their application info on their website to specify 3100.

Re: code 45

No, they're just the wrong design if those are the injectors you're using. Different resistance & not compatible with early stuff. You had it before the swap though? What was your fuel psi?
