changed temp senser and did the relearn starts and runs like ti should now not sure if it was the temp senser or the relearn that did it But thanks to all of you that helped I'm good till the next prob I hope its a long time put to much $$$$'s in now

It all started out with hard cold starts Replace pressure reg,(had no pressure in line a bit after shutting down) cap n rotor, plugs, wires and air n gas filters. Starts right up now but takes a minute to warm to the point that you can even give it gas without wanting to stall like its being...

Thanks never even thought of doing that Originally Posted By: seemore Have you done a "relearn" on it since you have done the work on it ? If not here it is,,,, IDLE RE-LEARN PROCEDURE: Disconnect the battery cable and leave it disconnected for at least 15 minutes. Reconnect the battery cable...

nobody has a clue thats good thought it was just me that dont understand this fuel injected computerized stuff

Originally Posted By: mechtech2 Consider the regulator as kind of a 'power valve' in a carburetor. With high vacuum like when cruising, it allows less pressure. When you step on the gas, the vacuum goes away and there is more fuel pressure. Like a vacuum valve in a carburetor that allows more...

started right up this morning problem fixed had to be regulator

Thinking about it dont sit flush where it bolts down like the old one did so fittings into fuel line should be raised also would that matter? Dont it flow in one and out the other? As you can tell I aint messed with this much I like my old carberated cars with no ECU

Replaced the reg on a 94 Ford with a 5.0 The old one didn't have a rubber seal and the new one did So question is cuuld it be the wrong run? Dont seem to run right but did plugs wire cap n rotor so may just have a couple plug wires misplaced Seems to idle all right but gutless on take off Going...

Originally Posted By: Texan4Life I have heard the FPR can get small leaks in their diaphragm and still function correctly/within spec which allows a little gas into your vacuum lines. I think mine is doing this as the metal hose nipple on my FPR has white corrosion looking stuff on it. While...

Dont know if it does I'll have to look Thanks for the idea

pulled plugs its running richpressure bleeds off of fuel line making it hard to start

Ya did a few filters and got sprayed. Thats what I thought Going to replace regulator and see what happens Got a book but cant find the thing bet I will after I done Thanks

Is there suppose to be pressure in the line acouple hours after shutting it off ?

doing some reading got to test for how much pressure so got to go make a pressure tester and start there still like to know how to test the regulater

I checked for pressure before I even turned key on and none pulled stem core out to make sure and no pressure. Is there a way to check the pressure reg to see if thats the problem ? Cranked over 5 times for 20-30 seconds before it started then ran sluggish at first. I got a vaccum tester but...

ok thanks about to go out and work on it I'll give that a try first thing thanks again

well went out to check things over I've had tape over the light so long that I forgot it was ABS light on not service engine light so theres not no sence trying to check codes is there? But made a short cut to that link thanks that will come in handy.
