Don't I already have MPFI? Reference voltage and resistance on IAT seem to be good. I can't even find the ECT. My book says it's near impossible to get to. Yesterday I had over an hour of normal use before it started to screw up. I thought I had it whipped. Is there a way to lock it in open loop? Everything is fine in open loop.

I dont know if you have mpfi.. maybe.

Sure there is.. put in a resistor in place of ect to make VCM always think it's in warmup. of course your gas mileage tanks.
Here's the approp VCM conn with ect. You can measure there.

Ooops. no 5v on that conn. Find 5v pin on the iat or whatever and ohm from that to pin 23

Thanks fellow Buckeye. I've decided to bite the bullet and spend $50 on a diagnostic next Tuesday. They told me it takes 2-5 hrs to do. Maybe it will come back with something simple. What ever, I'll let you know.

Bit the bullet and had a diagnostic run and it came back "low fuel pressure". Said we only had 48psi running, so we are going to try another regulator since the pressure before was 80psi. I hope this does it.

Don't trust after market pressure regulators. Stick with OEM. Everything seems fine now.
