I changed my fuel pump with a 255, and got a new granetelli massair on it and reset the computer and it's still doing the same thing <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" /> , I was woundering could it have anything to do with my spyder intake or maybe a vacumn leak, but brandon hooked it up for so it should be cool, he knows what he's doing.

If it was a bad vaccum leak your idle would be very rough. It never hurts to check the EGR and the PCV valve either. Have you checked the spark plugs and given them all the once over. With bigger injectors I've been told that fuel pressure should be lowered and timing advanced a few extra degrees.good luck. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>PRIMERED COUPE</b> <br /><small>Member # 6342</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,1,25,14,18,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> what is your timing set at? your fuel should be good set around 40psi with the 30's but its never hurts to try more fuel, are you sure your gauge is right..my gauge has took a shit on me once or twice.also granetelli massair meeters are shit, but i dont think thats your problem, check you gauge, set your timing and play with your fuel, things should work good<br /> <br /> <small>[ February 25, 2006, 02:19 PM: Message edited by: PRIMERED COUPE ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>SmokinLX</b> <br /><small>Member # 1684</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,1,25,14,36,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Do You still have converter's?
