After re reading through your threads, I realize
1 you have a 86 Tuned port SBC
2 you should have a 16198259 ECM to run it
3 I did not see a Mass Air Flow sensor on the engine or in the airstream.
4 It has become obvious that you could also have god knows what for a wiring harness this could be 1 of 2 of your biggest problems.
I have seen you post several times and realize your head must be spinning.
Do you have any part of the harness that isnt plugged into a sensor or the computer.
Didnt you also say the ECM has 3 plugs and the harness has only 2?
Hmmmmmmm. ain:
This is so obnoxious. The tpi is a decent system.TPI blows it does not flow enough air in stock form and the aftermarket solutions are very costly once you get everything purchased and installed. USally wiring harness, upper lower and throttle body need to be replaced along with injectors and computer just to hit 300 hp. then the troubles really start costing money.
Junk the TPI install carb and intake drive car for next 20 years without problems.
thanks guys.appreciate all your help.i have learned a lot from your posts.now that the weather is starting to break , I am getting antsy to get her back out on the road once again,but waiting for the salt to subside.will keep you informed.I think its safe to say that Soul Hunter Nailhead and Myself REALLY want to see YOU fix this thing.
If you learn your setup well you will never need a "mechanic" to look at it for you.
If you can find an older OBD 1 scanner for a reasonable price that would be helpful in the future, but not totally necessary.
Drewnashty is kickin down too.
Keep us posted, We wanna see a smile on your face .
