Do you have a drivability issue? It is very hard to see the spray cone without the use of a strong flash light and MANY will look to be dribbling.


If it's running okay, slam the hood on 'er.

Okay,


I'm assuming you've already replaced the fuel filter?


Put a gauge on the fuel pressure side at the TBI. Let's make darned sure you have the fuel to even make 'er spray.
