    Fuel injectors are barely pulsing.

    We put a noid light on the injectors and cranked it is barely lighting up. I have swapped out ecus so I know that is not the problem. Could it be a bad ground somewhere? What would cause this issue?? Oh and my security light stays on when I turn the key on and when cranking the car all the time...

    Starts Barely When Gas is Feathered

    Starts Barely When Gas is Feathered

    today i checked the car out and the only code that came up was a 51. which is the ac switch and tps. I dont even have the ac hooked up. anyway I did an ohm test on the cps and the resistance was 238 when cygnus says it should be 140-180 ohms. Could this be my problem. I also checked the timing...

    Starts Barely When Gas is Feathered

    one more question. If I get a lexus ls 400 AFM do I have to get 550cc injectors, or can I run it with the stock injectors and stock turbo? Will it cause a power lose? When I set the timing does the diag box have to be jumped?

    Help needed. Fuel pressure

    A few months back I purchased a 89 supra (7mgte) for $300. The car is currently not running. It has about 2-3 lbs of pressure. I thought for sure it would be the pump and I put one in it and new filter and its still doing the same thing. The car will start if u feather the gas when u crank it...
