Just did some diagnostic testing........

using my new toys :lala: :lala:

TPS was out of wack, reading more than it should w/zero throttle.

Tested the MAF, or at least did part of it. It didn't pass the first test. It's crapped. I can get another one, will try this sunday w/some begging & a 12 pak of beer (same person I got the egr solinoid off of) .

These things are great!! Maybe it will actually run right & pass e-check

yes they do. I Drove the car around today & it has about wice the pickup it had before. Might even be able to take a metro off the line now. No black smoke either

Just gave me a code 22 & 34. 22 I'm not worried about (tps) & 34 is the MAF. Actually ran better w/it hooked up than not.

you have a 3.4 ? with a 2.8 ecm and 3.4 injectors right ? if so put the 2.8 injectors in for echeck. the ecm isnt calibrated for the bigger 3.4 injectors.
