    Hmmm, go MKIV?

    This. X10. But you're wasting time trying to get through to him. Like most here he'll just end up paying for the financial stupidity of youth later in life...

    relay location

    I think he means the pump isn't turning on when it normally should. Jumpering the diag block bypasses a bunch of things....

    wiring problems....oh the horror!!

    Based on your post history of poor communication, substandard grammar, bad spelling, atrocious punctuation, a continuing unwillingness to help yourself through what appears to be terminal laziness (how's that "live n learn" thing working out for ya?) and not getting his name right when asking...

    ARP head stud problem

    ^ Lmao. I was thinking the same thing. I knew it. It's tough thinking on that level though....gives me a headache ;)

    Recommended Crimping Tool

    I've cleaned the thread up. As mentioned solder is inferior to a properly done crimp which is, when done using the correct tooling and terminals, gas tight and not subject to corrosion. The aerospace sector long ago established this and there are many technical resources out there that so state...

    looking for a "Hot" circut after the car has started

    Someone has spent too much time exposed to French engineering ;) While that'd work it's bad practice to connect something (it'd be nice to know what for several reasons) to the ECU bus, especially critical circuits like fuel and ignition. Not that it can't be done, just that one should...

    Recommended Crimping Tool

    $90 eh? You're breaking my heart. Try buying certified crimp tools for aviation use ;) I'll recommend the AMP ProCrimper II. About $80 with one set of dies. Additional die sets can be spendy though. Depends on what they're for. I recall some of my coax ones cost more than the tool itself...

    Barely Passed Smog!

    What's up with the NOx? I find that hard to believe, especially with CO that low. Going off that data alone it looks pretty good. CO2 is right up there and mixture looks fine. Course, I have no idea what it'll be like in 2 years. I'm gonna guess the oxidizing bed is tired (even though it seems...

    Barely Passed Smog!

    Some are charging extra for LPFET because the state has only certified two systems and neither are cheap. Fwiw I built my own. Not nearly as automated but does the job. Would like to see all the gases Jon, for both speeds. Otherwise it's difficult to distinguish between high HC caused by poor...

    Warm Start Problems

    After the engine is turned off fuel left in the rail can become hot enough to boil. Since engines don't run well on vapor what results on a warm restart are symptoms much like yours. It's most likely to happen the first 15-60 minutes after shutdown. Commonly called "vapor lock". To avoid it...

    What's causing my car to lope?

    It can't be the O2 sensor. It could be a plugged cat though...

    "real" restoration

    Not original but close and yeah, bought new. Rolled it off a dealer's lot in June of 87 after becoming $25K poorer. I dunno wtf I was thinking that day ;)
