New motor wont stay running
I finally got my Stealth rammed 383 started and im having some problems with keeping it running. It starts fine if i give it some gas, will rev to around 2000 rpm and then die.
Ive played with the timing, When i prime it the fuel pressure is around 40 psi, but leaks down very quickly, like 2-3 minutes. So im thinking that the injectors are leaking, but I cant see why that would cause it to not stay running. It has the stock 305TPI prom still in it
... I figured it would still atleast run with that, albeit not well.
So any help would be really appreciated
thanks
