Good call nsiti, but I was first doing my due diligence by checking the things they might ask me about…and as it turned out, the Tech really knows his stuff and identified the issue very quickly. It was a faulty MAP Sensor (so I replaced this one with a quality “Made in the USA” one!)…and being out of range prevented the trigger signal to the injectors from being sent, so they weren’t squirting! He’s also going to help me dial-in the system after I get another 50 miles or so on it!

Glad to hear. Did the faulty MAP sensor come with the Pro Flow kit? Are they replacing it under warranty?

Cheers,
Nick

Thanks Nick…I’m relieved the fix was something that was readily available, plus I learned something!

Yes…the AC/Delco was pre installed on the throttle body when I received the kit, but I don’t actually know if it would be under warranty? That’s something I’ll look into after the Tech helps me finish with the “Advanced Tuning”…as he’s not the person that would be making that call (but I’ll gather any intel about it along the way!).

Nick…Did you ever receive your Pro Flo 4 system, or did you cancel that order?

Woody

Re: Slow Progress is better than No Progress.

Great to hear that tech support actually provided support. Fingers crossed on the warranty side.

Hi, I did receive my Pro Flo 4, not long after you. I recall that it was extremely delayed due to covid. The supply chain was seriously disrupted. My cynical mind wonders whether there will be a greater level of defects for items built during that period.

My restoration build is in the final stages of bodywork, of which I've been posting photos and brief commentary in the build section of this forum. Hopefully the engine and efi installation wil commence in a couple of months.

Keep us updated on your progress!

Nick
