fuel pressure spec Reply #31 – January 29, 2009, 04:14:34 PM Came across some interesting verbage in the 84 shop manual.In the disassembly of the CFI Fuel charging assembly:"One at a time pull the injectors out of the upper body. Identify each injector as "choke" or "throttle" side".It refers to a figure with an arrow pointing to the bottom end barrel of the injector and says "injector identification letter"In the assemble section:Identify injectors and install them in their appropriate locations (choke or throttle side).It kind of implies there is some difference between the two. I never thought there was any mechanical difference.I wonder if the EEC controls them differently, like when cranking for instance.Maybe you could try reversing the the connectors on them and see if it starts any better.I read somewhere you can test the injectors by unplugging them one at a time while idling and see if the RPM drops the same amount.

fuel pressure spec Reply #32 – January 29, 2009, 04:36:58 PM His orintation of the tan / black connectors are correct.That unplugging an injector shop manual test works better if you have an injector for each cylinder. you just do the ratio of rpm to qty of injectors. This means he will have a flipping / flopping motor if he unhooks one.Here is what i do see / know. Someone has been all up in that CFI. That is not a stock FPR unless the freezeplug has been drilled out on top and removed so someone can adjust it. The shrader valve is not stock either. That CFI ****I THOUGHT***** was only found on 83 cougs and most all your LTD's of the like back to 82 or 81.You have a cfi pn on the side, can you put it up? Quote Selected
fuel pressure spec Reply #33 – January 29, 2009, 04:41:57 PM Is that injector wet?You can also attemp to flush out any debris on the top side of the injector by removing the shrader valve, ground your eec test conn to chassis, set up to catch gas, turn on your key , let gas flow out. There is a square bolt head on the under side per your last pic that can be removed as well to get up in there with a gun brush to clean out those ports as well.If you can have someone up at the cfi spraying a little gas while you keep her running, and while adding gas by spray bottle and gas pedel she sounds better, then your problem is back to fuel delivery,likely at the injectors.Those injectors should read about 2ohms there abouts.

fuel pressure spec Reply #34 – January 30, 2009, 12:40:12 AM the fitting on the shrader valve is for my pressure gauge,as for the injecters being wet i had sprayed them down with carb cleaner to see the color better and they were still wet when i took the pici wanna say this thing is flooding out,maybe getting to much fuelas for when i try to load it up and do a power brake to spin a tire it will bogged down and cut off and wont start unless i put the pedal to the floorthrottle body has --e4ae fb b 4f 13--highlghted with yellow markall paintmike Quote Selected
fuel pressure spec Reply #35 – January 30, 2009, 11:13:51 AM ok,, turn down your fuel presure......your plugs must look wet/like hell.Now that you think its too much fuel, pull the ACT sendor located on one of the intake runners (I think on the pass side front) and clean it off as well. Read its resistance per my diy link just to make sure its cold reading is correct.Set your choke just like you would a carb when the motor is bone cold and the throttle plates barely start to open.

fuel pressure spec Reply #36 – January 31, 2009, 12:31:31 AM i lowered the pressure to 35psi,choke is good,when cold i pat the gas once and she will start right up.after she gets a lil warm is when the problem startsthat is as far as i got,may look at the o2 sensor and act in the ammike Quote Selected

fuel pressure spec Reply #38 – January 31, 2009, 09:49:32 PM Quote from: blackcougar71;254703all the cfi v8 i have messed with have had the plunger/ vacuum thing especially on 83-86 and the v6 had the throttle position sensor. my car when i got it had the blue injectors instead of the green injectors. but i switched to green till i upgraded the fuel system that went i to two yellow injectors from a 4.6 crown vic.How does this help out with the problem other than adding to the problem trying to figure out what it is you said.?
