found out the injectors are not all the same you have to have the right injector in the right spot and i had one injector plug on the fuel temp sensor and its plug on an in injector it ran super rich

Sorry for the slow reply, i forgot what my user was, so i had to make a new 1 and started a new thread.

I have all the wiring on in the correct place, as i have stripped the efi wireing to check all colours etc, this thing has been a nightmare, i think it is just one of those cars that is a jinks. freaken had it

Started the other post over at efi dramas continue.

Thanks for sharing.

dont suppose at any time you fitted a pressure gauge to the Fuel Rail ? Seen 70 PSI there with a pinched return Line ,that will do what you say is happening .
What is the condition of your ignition system ,What amp,what plugs,what leads,what static and running advance retard. Also seen this when Dizzy cap spring loaded carbon brush pops out!!Earthed out rotor button?
