Hello All,
I did read the how to ask a question section & I hope I covered all the basics, however if I didn't, I profusely apologize and please feel free to instruct me on my errors.
Now I have had my 86.5 N/A for about 5 yrs & of those 2 were on the road. However, I am expeditiously attempting to get her back on the road as I'm losing the space I've had her in within 1 month's time. All upgrades I have undertaken were done under the guidance of my former mechanic, hence the need for assistance & proper guidance. I'd also like to point out that i'm a novice who's currently not working so everything must be undertaken with a budget in mind. The problem i'm currently having is that with the mods undertaken (including the 440 turbo injector w/AFPR upgrade, J-tube removal) I need to know what the proper range would be on the AFPR. Secondly, after having the engine on for about 15mins, my temp. reading did't go up, but there was obvious overheating as the coolant was literally boiling in the reservoir tank. As per previous threads, I did check for BHG & while there was white smoke coming out the muffler, there was no sweet smell, I checked the oil with the dipstick & it was clear (I use royal purple synthetic motor oil) and coolant was not milky but clear as well. There were no coolant leaks anywhere, but I did notice that smoke was coming from underneath the heat shield by the manifold header. Therefore, I would highly appreciate assistance as to what the problem may be.
Thanks to all!!!
