Re: Cold Start Problems - Fuel puddle found in intake manifold 700 1989

posted by  someone claiming to be jim on  Sun Mar 4 05:56 CST 2001 [RELATED]

An 89 should have a cold start injector screwed in the floor of the manifold. Pressurise the fuel system with the throttle off and check for dribbling out the injector. The main injectors would dribble onto the valves. The regulator could do it but they usually put out enough gas the car won't run at all.

To pressurise, remove the f.p. relay and run a jumper from power to the heavy yellow wire which runs to the fuel pump. Let the pump run and watch the injector. Do not crank the engine as it may start and rev to the limiter.
