I have eliminated the 9th injector altogether for some time now, and basically I just put it in there to plug the hole, so no vacuum leaks. But has anyone done anything different like use a actually plug if so what?

Been running it since 2007 without issues. It was fairly simple to install, and if I remember correctly fairly inexpensive.

What exactly is this cold start plug?I've got one of the chrome press in style cold start plugs installed in my '85 Corvette TPI setup. Been running it since 2007 without issues. It was fairly simple to install, and if I remember correctly fairly inexpensive.
I'll have to look around and see if the kit was still available. I don't remember where I found it online, but it did install easily. There are newer designs available that also seem to include the fuel rail plug (something my kit did not).
yea the ones people have posted links of are quite pricey given its just a plug!

My cold start plug kit came with the large tube runners from TPIS. I would bet they sell the plug kits seperately if you ask. It also came with a nice cap for the fuel tap in the rail.
