That would have been fun. My S10 was only a $100.00 but it's a load of work.

Truck still isn't right. Ordered a new cat from Jason. Should be here next week I hope.

I also took a set of stock injectors that I had from the 09 Mustang and put in it. Runs better but still has a bit of a miss. Not sure if its the computer trying to learn or something else. 90% of the ignition system is brand new. I haven't changed the plug wires but they look brand new. I might a set up.

Getting tired of f'ing with it. If the new cat doesn't bring a significant change I might just light it on fire. Lol

You did check the resistance of all the injectors you installed?
I know you have done quite a bit of stuff to it but...
Fuel Pressure?
Cleaned the throttle body?
IAC?
MAP or MAF?
02 sensors?
Coil packs?
Wires?

Took advantage of this and started ordering some stuff for Lola's rebuild. Great offer and was going to spend the money anyway.

I didn't check the resistance on the "new" injectors just assumed 30k injectors from a 2009 were bound to be better than 170k injectors from 2001. And I forgot that you can ohm them to be honest. Lol

I've changed the following

Coil
Cap
Rotor
Plugs
Crank pos sensor
Distributor pickup sensor
PCM

Cleaned and serviced

IAC
Throttle body

I think when the new cat gets here I will put new Oxygen sensors in it too.

Got my spare tire/rim from Discount Tire yesterday. Put them in the trunk on my Brembo package Gt. I just got back from Sears to get a 13/16 deep socket. Put it in a small bag together with my lug key lock and stashed them in the trunk. Still waiting for my ford jack to be totally independent from the gooey stuff that Ford gave us Brembo car owners.
