Nothing a little JB Weld can't fix... ![]() ![]() Group: Members Posts: 263 Joined: 8-June 09 From: WA Member No.: 10,450 Region Association: Pacific Northwest ![]() |
So Ive been having trouble with my car sputtering and backfiring and I just cannot figure it out. I have a 1.7 FI. When i rev the car under load it seems like it just has no power. Cars been timed correctly, went through everything and I still cannot figure it out. Hoses look ok, exhaust bolts seem to tighten but wont tighten completly. Not sure if this would cause all these problems or not. Could my injectors be clogged or fuel pressure be to low? Can someone go through a test procedure for this? I really don't want to have to spend another 3 or 4 hundred dollars on this if its just something simple. Thanks Guys

T in to where the cold start valve is. That's an easy way to do it. Or, if you have a "spare" fitting on one fuel rail or another, you can just run a hose from there to the gauge.
Pressure should be 29 PSI. --DD |

You can make a fuel pressure gauge from Home Depot parts; they sell a pressure gauge in the plumbing dept and brass fittings to allow you to clamp on a piece of fuel injection hose. Then follow DD's post... |
