Re: Project Winter Beater

So I believe I have finally figured out the reason as to the cars hard running and starting issues. Bad injector for one, but when I went to swap them out, I see no body had any of those 3 black plastic spacers that go between the fuel rail and the head. Some body just straight torqued the rail down and just about screwed half of the injector seals. Also, the bolt farthest to the passenger side broke off inside the head probably due to bottoming out. So I would like to try and extract that today. If I can't, I don't think it will be a huge issue as it seems solid with 2 bolts. We'll see.

I put some other what I think are 450's in and it runs very smooth now but acts like it has a huge boost leak. I should be able to figure it all out at school today.
