She's finally at it again...

Re: She's finally at it again...

did you check the fuel pressure regulator? if the fuel pump relay is messed it wouldnt run at all and its pretty rare that they do go anyways.

Well the regulator isn't leaking gas, but that doesn't mean it failed internally.

An older friend of mine called me and told me about a vehicle he messed with having similar problems and what he did to fix it ( which just may have been luck. ), so I guess it couldn't hurt...I'll let you guys know if it worked or not...

I was thinking about pulling the vaccum line off the regulator to make the fuel pressure run static and see what it'd do. If it runs static and runs better, I'm definately plugging it back in and going straight to the parts store. lol.

My car's miss fire has been fixed.

( I needed these anyway in the long run...I found out the hard way. )

Newer Parts -
Accel 23lbs/hr Fuel Injectors ( I'm really good friends with the guy I bought them off of and know exactly when and where they've come from. They have less than 10k on them and I paid cheap. =) )
Ignition Control Module ( Stock one off the same guy's 91 Regal with the 99 Grand Prix GTP engine. )

Turned out to be the ignition control module. Last night I happened to pull 6 and 3's coil pack off and noticed one of the prong snapped off. Upon changing out the ICMs, I noticed all my prongs were rusty and corroded, and another was about to snap.

...and somehow I still pulled a 15.26 in this.

How she runs now:

Smooth. Smoother than before. My stock injectors ( 205k miles ) were warped inside the nozzle, rusted, the O rings were cracked, and one of the injectors was falling apart literally.

I tested her today leaving my friend's house that we did the ICM swap at, and there's a steep hill leaving the house, I laid into it and she burned out up the hill through first, second and chirped into third at the top of the hill.

I love her even more.
