[sneakypete]

ok,, didn't konw what that ment,, also i dont have the manual... i got them used

he means the toyota service repair manual (TSRM). google it and you'll realize its a gift from the gods. it will give you the proper torque value for each bolt.

ok, and given that they are down to the proper torque should the injectors be turning? thats what i want to know, should the injectors be turning some???? somebody has to know this

 

[sneakypete]

try listening to the advice everyone is giving you..... look in the manual so you wont have to ask such noob questions
here is a link to make it even easier for you..........TSRM

ok, i got the 550s put in, the lex afm is on. i started the car at first it had a hard time staying running, but then it finaly leveled out some. according to my wideband at idle the car is very very lean..its showing the - - - sign, i had to turn the safc up to 13-15% and then it idled normal.. arent the 550s suppose to be matched for the lex??

 

[sneakypete]

did you recently install the wideband? or what i mean was it working before? did you smell gas when it was idling bad?

the wide band has been on the car for a while now.. no i didn't smell gas at all.. ANOTHER new problem... first gear at WOT it goes very lean and loses lots of power, but EVERY other gear runs perfect and pulls great..other gears WOT afr's are around 12.. why would first gear not be hiting the right AFR's?

Did you install the AFPR and removed or drill out the restrictive J-tube (mounted on block between the fuel rail/pressure regulator and return line to fuel tank? You should do those things when going with larger injectors and Lex AFM.

going to ask a stupid question but, did you reset your ecu after the install?

what is your FP set at also?

 

[sneakypete]

also i wouldnt be driving if your running too lean while the car is under load

 

[suprafanatic]

no i didn't reset the ecu after install, would that make a difference? do i pull the EFI fuse? i dont have a FPR yet.

Reset the ECU by pulling the EFI fuse.

An AFPR needs to hit the top of your to-do list...did you drill out the J tube?

 

[suprafanatic]

yes i'v drilled out the J-tube
