test it while it is running and tape gauge to windshield and drive down the road and watch it as you do a few wot stomps.....and re run koer test at operating temp

ok ill have to try tommarrow, what about the adapter to the schrader valve, do you know if they sell those at the local parts store or do i have to buy a new tester lit

calfroper_06

ok well had to oreder one from the internet, dang autozone guy said i would have to buy a new pressure tester just for the $2.50 adapter. hahabut im going to get another tps and iac tomarrow from a user donor car

mjr46

sorry don't know where to get just the adapters...I'd rerun a koer test first before replacing anything, this time do it at operating temp

calfroper_06

yeah i am , im just going to grab some spare parts just in case, im going to test the tps and then then other tps im getting cause i really dont like the way the one in the car looks, meaning the scraps and wear it has. ALso is ther any way i can test the iac

calfroper_06

ok well since this dang hurricanes hear i cant do anything!!! but yesturday i went out and started the car to let the batt charge up. i primed the pump slveral times before starting and it cranked up and idle low a few times back up and then down then leveled off and ran ok. but heres something i havnt had, when i would give it gas(at the throttle body) it sputters its way up, then being at like 2K rpms go to give it a good bump and it sputtered pretty good so i gave it alittle more gas and i was getting a backfire or pop sound through the intake. i check the timing its at 14* runnning super unleaded. And after i let it warm up and took it down the road it seemed like it runs better warmed up. COuld an injector be cause this, i say this cause the injectors were from the motor that came with the car, they were new but the car sat for like 3 years and was hardly started

it sounds like maybe you have a misfire, I'd double check the firing order(13726548) counterclockwise and make sure cap rotor and wires are good and well as all pushed on the terminals and plugs good

calfroper_06

ok ill check, the cap, rotor and plugs are all new, im probly going to go ahead and order some ford racing wires. also could the tfi module cause this also, i have two spare dizzys if i have to change it. also when you put the spout connector in, is it suppose to move the timing at idle cause im getting like a 10* constant movement at idle, and when i rev it goes and stays at almost 40*.

mjr46

with spout in the timing will jump up normal and at idle if the engine is running rough the timing won't be steady

calfroper_06

ok cool that explains that thanks, ill run out and check it out when this 40 mph rains stops lol
