NEED HELP ASAP!! FUEL INJECTOR WIRING
ok so i purchsed a 1989 Firebird with the 305 (5.0L) TPI thinking the injectors needed to be cleaned, so yesterday i did that, i took all the injectorwires off. Now my Car will hardly start im almost positive because i dont have the the wires on the correct injectors. Can someone Please tell me which wires go on which injector! Thank You

tpi is batch fire. it fires the left bank of injectors together, then the right bank together. as long as you dont have left and right mixed up, it doesnt matter what order the plugs are in.

Re: NEED HELP ASAP!! FUEL INJECTOR WIRING
How Can i tell if it is off or not? i mean Prior to this issue, the car would start right up run untill it go hot (1-5 Min) then stall out....So i replaced the fuel pump,Filter,Cleaned the Injectors. How can i find out if it out of timing? and is that an easy Fix?

you would need a timing light, and youd have to verify TDC and the distributor rotar location.
is the check engine light on?

As Travis linked above in post # 8 (even has SIMPLE instructions)
Jumper the ALDL connector
and read the flashes to get the codes.
