Sputter
Sputter
still working through the issues with the 89 Formula 350 I bought a couple months ago. One by one I have been replacing pieces. So far, new MAF, TPS,and IAC. Now it starts and idles at least so I was able to set the TPS and IAC. Sits and idles good at 700 to 800 rpm. When I put it in gear and head down the road it has a hesitation when I hit the gas. It also sputters and will occasionally backfire through the plenum. I have checked fuel pressure and it's good and holds pressure when engine is turned off. Tested the injectors and all 8 show 16.2 to 16.8 ohms.
Whats left that I need to check? Any thoughts?
Thanks

Re: Sputter
sounds like the intake manifold is leaking. Mine did that. hesitated under throttle, acted like it was missing or not getting the correct fuel mixture etc.
