Re: Tbi swap build thread

I think code 42 was set when I set the timing! It has not come back since then.

I did buy a TBI rebuild kit and installed it tonight...still no difference in performance. I though it could be the fuel regulator from what I have read on the net.

I forgot to mention : the first time I ever started it one of the injectors was not squirting fuel. I tapped on it with a wrench and it started to work.

Could a bad/dirty injector be the problem? I did replace the small screen filter and o-ring on the base of the injector when I did the rebuild.

I did buy a new fuel pump and sending unit along with new feed and return line.

I will buy a pressure gauge to test the fuel pressure...but I don't think that is the issue...could be wrong. Can anyone recomond a fuel pressure tester?

I will keep you posted on the results and please keep the ideas coming
