When it rains - it pours...

Recieved 6 new injectors, replaced and pressurized system..... No fuel leaks from injectors..... Just fuel pissing outta the vacuum manifold (if I wouldn't have been been soo pissed it would have been hilarious - all 6 vacuum ports were unplugged and leaking fuel EVERYWHERE).

Apparently my brand new Aeromotive FPR was back-feeding fuel out the vacuum port and filling the vacuum system.  So going to call Aeromotive and going to try to order a rebuild kit this AM.  It would be covered under warranty, but I don't wanna mess with removal/shipping/waiting - I just want this thing to run!!!

Self cleaning engine bay, oh man that sucks!

Just got off the phone with Aeromotive - It's always nice to work with companies that stand behind their products!  They're shipping me a new diaphragm after I spoke with their tech.  Hoping it gets here soon!

[ClassE]

New FPR diaphragm installed - back up and running!!!

Once again - Brian comes through with MS knowledge and help that has made this whole project happen.  Can't thank him enough for the emails/calls/texts - this car would literally not be running without him.

Got a nice running/driving tune in tonight - hopefully some good video by the end of this weekend!

Next time plan for disappointment, that way anything besides a bump will be really noteworthy.

Im still alive, just had a busy winter of house work/kids/life/etc... starting to make plans for the "next project" on this car.  More to come as I start acquiring parts...

[ClassE]

I did - Thanks!!!  I could've sworn I uploaded a pic to the Secret Santa thread?!?  I'll take a look - I know I at least got a picture of it on the tree!

[straight6pwr]

E30 is still there but looking to get sold before winter.  We moved about 2 years ago into a new bigger place but with kids getting older (10 and 13 now) priorities have shifted.  If anyone’s interested LMK, I’ll get a FS post up sometime soon!
