I just want to say Thank You.
I am not a very active poster but I am an avid follower and I just want to say thanks for all the great advice and information. I Found this site after I found a car that interested me. I did a lot of research before I purchased it. Because of this site and all the information that it contains I was very comfortable with the purchase and had knowledge of future issues that may be in need of repair.
Feb 2010 was the purchase date of 1991 #31. All last year I just drove the car and enjoyed it. At the end of last year I realize the car was starting to run a bit erratic at times and found I had a few vacuum leaks that needed to be taken care of so I got my first plenum pull out of the away. While apart I checked the injectors but can you believe the were all OK. 43000 miles and all the injectors were 13.8 ohms and leak down test was OK. Looks Like they got a little life still left in them. These cars are very addicting and knowledge is dangerous. Next thing you know , the plenum and injector housings were on the bench and got a full 36m port job (my first attempt at porting). This took a bit longer than I expected but turned out very nice. I port mached the Injector Housing to the heads on the car. Out came all the secondary related junk and sent the PROM off to Corey for a rework. Next was the trip to the Powder Coat Company. Got the gaskets from Jerry and several weekends in my Bros. garage and WHAT A DIFFERENCE! Throttle response is much better. No more clatter from the flywheel and she pulls like a SOB I never would have attempted anything like this if it wasn't for this site. I hope to make it to BG next year and meet some of you who made this all possible. Thanks again
