Re: MPFI Parts Help

Grab a wire diagram for the ECM/engine, and make sure you have all of the corresponding sensors.

When it comes to swaps, even using factory parts, there will be some "custom" parts needed, especially for the hoses and tubes, unless you order ALL of the tubes and hoses and parts they attach to as well.

Just look at schematics that show where things connect, and make your's connect to the same parts.
