[QUOTE="buddha93, post: 9373910, member: 6433"] X2 I always keep the timing stock when I'm messing with an idle like that because it takes that variable out. Then once I get it lined out, I raise bump the time and make adjustments if need be. I know I've been harping on this, but put the FP to 39psi. That takes one more varible out of the equation and that's where it needs to be. Injectors are rated at a static pressure....usually around 43 psi or something like that. Remember the meter tells the EEC how much fuel to deliver so if your too far below that pressure, the engine isn't getting enough fuel. At that point you've got just a couple of things; clocking that meter and messing with the idle screw, assuming you've already got the TPS in order and the othe miscellaneous stuff. I stopped by my buddies house to look at where we put his meter, and it's where I thought it was, clocked towards the engine. Every meter I've had this issue liked that clocking........has something to do with the way the air enters, and creates turbulance causing the meters to fritz. Anyway, a picture's worth a thousand words..........so I took two: [URL=http://img246.imageshack.us/i/021810173802.jpg/][IMG]http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/5520/021810173802.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://img42.imageshack.us/i/021810173801.jpg/][IMG]http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/4286/021810173801.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Getting closer........I hope!:-D [/QUOTE]
