Ford vs Chevy Build-up

HandOverFist · 04-28-2015, 01:42 AM

Got the skinny on my problems with the engine from Brian. I need to run a manifold vacuum line to the regulator...currently at 40psi, the computer thinks the engine is at WOT at all times therefore the rich idle. I also need to re-install the deleted IAC valve on the throttle body so it can get more air than what is allowed thru the butterfly alone. Timing.procedure was already in place and not part of the problem. I did find a loose connection on the starter relay which may explain the lack of charging...will see on the next fire-up.
