  1. When I say spray, I picture a cone shape spray of fuel. I'll try replacing the fuel filter again and see if that has any effect, but there's been only a few thousand miles put on the car since I've had it and I've already replaced the filter once.
  2. I checked the injector just now, I couldn't really see any spray but I did see fuel hitting the plate obviously. When I opened it up the car hesitated like it's been doing. I can't get it to do that when I'm not driving. Should I get a new injector then?
  3. Yeah, but before I put the new cts on it would run ok when cold and run like a third when warm.
  4. So she still has a little hesitation around 3k, but she's drivable now.
  5. Hey what's up guys? I'm sorry I havent been able to post on the car, I just haven't had the time to mess with it with the baby on the way. I did some searching and found some posts where people have had similar symptoms and it turned out to be the 2 wire cts. So I went ahead and bought one, and I just installed it. All is well so far, temp is about a third of the way up on the gauge and it doesn't try to die when I give it any gas. I'm gonna let it idle for a little while longer and take it for a drive and let you guys know if that solved my problem.
  6. This is how it started before the winch mount.
  7. I replaced the fuel filter when I got the car, and haven't put more than 4k miles on it. It's due for its 2nd oil change since I've had it. I'm not sure about stuff in the tank, I'll have to wait on that I just filled her up yesterday. How do I check the injector to make sure it's functioning properly?
  8. Hey guys I'm back. Same car, same issues. I thought the problem was clogged cats, but I opened them both up and they've already been gutted. When I step on the gas, the car studders unless I'm accelerating hard, doesn't matter how fast or what gear I'm in. If I try to keep a constant speed the car studders too. I'm completely stumped on this thing.
  9. My bad, the car I'm looking to buy is a 91 loyale.
  10. I still have the donor car my engine came from, so the exhaust manifold isn't an issue. So swap the wiring from under the intake, cam/crank sensors, and possibly block off the egr?
  11. Hi guys, I'm looking at buying a 91 Loyale with a blown ej22 in it. The engine in the car is a 95 and the harness is from 96. I have an ej22 from a 91 legacy ready to bolt in. Would I be able to use my engine with that wire harness? Or would I have to change a bunch of stuff?
  12. Ok. I noticed 2 in line fuse boxes on the positive battery post too, but neither have a fuse in them.

    SPFI Snorkel

    Not trying to thread jack, but isn't a snorkel useless unless you waterproof your whole electrical system and find a way to keep your exhaust from sucking water?
  14. http://mizpahprecision.com/pricing.htm To rebuild your core it's $4.50 ea. To buy some without sending in your cores it's $6 ea. Like stated above, it could be your oil pump, the o ring between the cam tower or your hlas (lifters), that could be your ticking issue. My buddy who has an 88 gl has had good luck with the Lucas oil stabilizer to quiet his tick until it's ready for an oil change.
  15. You might have a spongy lifter too. If you were to pull them and try to push the roller on each one and find the softest ones you can replace those. There's a place online that rebuilds them for a decent price if you send in your cores. I think it's mitzpa.com iirc. The o ring isn't something you can get in a felpro gasket set, you have to get it at the dealership in my experience.
  16. Photo bucket is being stupid on my phone so now I'm not sure how to post the pic, unless someone wants to pm me a # I can text it too and they can post.
