teh 5.0 is running like crap

I agree with jared dad bad or good in most cases check your fuel pressure before you buy anything.sounds to me like a bad plug wire. Maybe one got burt on the header.

definately a NO there....i got FMS wires with FMS wire looms bolted to the valve covers....these things arent close to the headers at all.

ill snap a pic in the daylight

Good point but I would sugest changing that thing either way!

fuel pump swap is pretty easy... hardest part is finagling the pump/sender back into the tank....hope you dont have a full tank of gas!!!

Maybe broke plug putting it in?

nope im good there...down to 1/4

Yea i would check fuel pressure first rather than just put a pump in it that all im saying.Be a mad if i bought a pump and that dont fix it.

Im still saying TPS

[RUSH2112]

what would happen if you put in a larger pump and stock 19# injectors?


also i noticed my volt gauge seemed to be running low on the way home. i did have the radio,wipers,lights on....and its the stock 75a so maybe its normal...i turned the lights/wipers off and it climbed back up some. so i think thats normal...

i been thinking fuel anywyas.

I got a 255lph on my stock injectors. Runs fine.

Its a pump. They go bad. Coral can tell you. He has the worst luck. Perhaps he and I can take a trip on Saturday. He is a whiz at doing them.

I replaced my pump a few months ago. Surprisingly it was pretty easy. I have very detailed instructions, with pictures if your interested.

Call a friend. It is defintely easier with 2 people, especiallly when you start dropping the tank and have to get it off the neck part.

For beer, I'm anyone's friend

another buddy of mine called and said check the stock FPR as well and it might have jumped time?

i have to go try and buy a fuel pressure gauge tomorrow...thought i could borrow one but it hasnt worked out.

[wick]

Its almost impossible to jump time. I have never seen this happen. Only with fiber gears, not a double roller timing chain.The FPG you woer looking at is the same one I have with the drain hose on it. Works great. I am still leaning to a weak pump or plugged filter. How does it drive now?
