Re: cold start injector

I see them on ebay from time to time. New ones are expensive, generally over $150. A good used one canm be had for probably 1/2 that.

Re: cold start injector

Braze the feed line shut the tune I sent you should do well with cold start enrichment without the need of the ninth injector.

really?? I was under the impression it needed to be functional AND leak free. I can get one of those block off kits and remove it entirely then?

Re: cold start injector

This would make sure its leak free. With the 89 programing all eight injectors are used based on coolant temp for cold start enrichment. if you want say a 88 305 tune send me your old memcal.
