Ok. I realize I wasn’t well educated enough about the MAP operation of these cars to be calling my readings good. I am now 100 percent certain my running issue is a MAP problem. Key on engine off the...

Been chasing wiring on this thing all morning. This thing did not like sitting and the wiring is just getting old. I had a bad ground on the LH fender. After finding/fixing that the car started and...

Doing some testing last night. I have 3 volts going to the coil and the fuel injectors. I checked voltage coming out of the power module on the ASD relay circuit. 3 volts on the wire just a few...

So. Fuel pressure is now perfect. But still runs like crap ugh. This car is frustrating me.

Yeah I checked the regulator. Definitely a bad pump. I just slapped one in and the fuel pressure is perfect now. Haven’t driven it yet.

So.... Monday evening I hooked up a fuel pressure gauge to my car. It was fluctuating between 30-40 psi at idle. Snapping the throttle caused the pressure to drop. I left the gauge hooked up and let...

Also, the black/grey connectors I am holding fit the 10 pin power module perfectly if you ground the plastic tabs off the side....

So I have a 1991 Lebaron V6 wire harness laying around at my work. It was used, but in good shape. Multiple of the interior connectors had terminals that worked for the PM connector. I had to bend...

I installed a new negative battery cable end as it was in very poor condition. I will be installing a new positive also, but it isn't nearly as bad and I didn't have much time yesterday. I cleaned...

Wow, the car has been sitting for over a year...
The fall weather and Richard Holdner's videos on youtube have motivated me. I have been picking away at the car the past week and this is where I am...

I drive the car on and off, but never bothered to look too deep into the running issues. I finally started diving in and I think I am close to getting it running good. I did a fuel pressure test and...

I've been driving the car a fair amount lately due to some issues with the daily driver. I'm still running into the same running issues. The car falls flat on it's face above about 3psi boost. It...

Finally threw in the Carter fuel pump I ordered. Not happy with the kit and still need a new sending unit but just wanted it running again. Almost had a major crisis. Drove it to work right after...

Hmmm. I’ve had decent luck with airtex but better luck with the carter brand so I am leaning that way. I will probably get a tbi Omni sender too so I can fix the fuel gauge while I’m in there.

Zin, I like that thought process!
issue I’m having is it seems nobody stocks complete pump/senders for turbo cars. Plenty of tbi but then I’d need to swap pumps which means more $$. Looks like I...

Phew. Crazy few months. My daughter was born 9/15 last year. I feel like things are just settling down a bit. I finally got around to diagnosing the issue I was having with low power/cutting out....

Last week I ordered a new 3 way PCV grommet from Mopar, and got a better PCV system set up. They still make them apparently, they had them in stock at the Atlanta warehouse. $12.xx. I also double...

Progress was made last week. Turns out the wire that controls injectors 3/4 from LM to PM had a spread terminal at the PM. I bent the terminal back so it makes a good connection and the car has...

Damn, both injector grounds from PM to injectors harness have good continuity. It's looking like the PM took a dump. May try to fit in a junkyard trip this weekend. Pull a part is showing an 87...

I may send them out to Mr. Injector. $16ish a piece to service them. I wanted to drive the car to Caffeine and Octane in Atlanta this weekend, but this misfire is stopping me. I was just out...

Thanks for all the tips! Wiggled wires at LM, no change. Different HEP swapped in, no change. Replaced coil (Autozone had one in stock for cheap, figured it wouldn't hurt to have a backup if it...

Phew, been a busy month! We closed on a house 07/07. I've been packing, painting, and moving! Things are getting a little more settled, so I've started playing with the car again. I'm chasing a...

All good tips, thanks everyone! I poked around under the hood yesterday and found the coil wire where it attaches to the cap is CRUSTY! I had a hard time pulling it off because it was rusted on! ...

Well, drove to work again and misfire is back! I'm thinking my cheap plug wires (literally rock auto's cheapest) are probably carbon tracked. I'm gonna get some better wires and go from there.

Drove to work again. Car was running great last night, but this morning it was misfiring horribly. Breaking up bad between 2k-3k rpm. Pulled the cap/rotor/wires/plugs to find one of the plugs had...
