Well, I figured out almost of the TPI's problems today

Winds up half of my injectors are not working, and only dribble when the fuel pump is on, and the truck is cranking, and that I had a massive penny sized vaccum leak due to putting gaskets on the wrong side of the engine, lol

I'll take my injectors in to be rebuilt today, if I can get the company that does them around here to answer, the phone, and hopefully I can finish up in the next day or so

LOL, putting gaskets on the wrong side of the engine. Glad to hear you finally figured out what was wrong with it.

Yeah, I am hoping that after I get these injectors rebuilt, she should fire right up and run pretty good.

So far, my issues have been two crossed plug wires, that huge vac leak, and now injectors. Half of them look great when they fire, the other 4 just sorta dribble all the time. I may wind up having to get a new set, depending on how bad they are inside

Other than that, I think its ready to go. Got my electric fans all rigged up, so I should be able to fire it up, and drive it up and down the driveway. Gotta take her easy on corners though, don't have the cab bolted down yet, lol

They are able to dissassemble them, and replace any dirty parts / use an ultrasound system to clean the rest.
