Re: Chasing my tail
What code is it throwing? What is your fuel pressure with the vacuum line connected and disconnected?

Re: Chasing my tail
Does it run better with vacuum line disconnected but plugged? (Higher fp, just no vacuum leak)

Despite being delphis sounds like you need a afpr or a tune . It sounds lean if surging.

The ECM has an integrator to SLOWLY write the updated to the BLM. Since it was started with the FPR in "bypass" mode, it may be worthwhile to disconnect the ECM power to clear everything and let it re-learn with everything connected correctly.

Re: Chasing my tail
Can this be accomplished by disconnection the battery?
Re: Chasing my tail
One method is to disconnect the battery. If you have a radio with presets and would rather avoid setting that up again, another method would be to remove the 20A inline ECM/FP fuse located near the battery. As long as the ignition is off, pulling that fuse should remove any ECM backup power.

Re: Chasing my tail
Well thanks for that. However the issues continues.I know understand why when i disconect the vacuum the psi on my fuel pressure tester goes up and when its plus back in it it goes down whichbtells.me the diagram inside the regular is doing its job.What i cant understand why it revs high then low.Could it be the fuel pump is crappy??
