Reviving a 90, Miss leads to multiple issues - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Update on this. Thanks for all the advice. So I did replace all the injectors and coils. Pulled all the plugs and ohm'd the wires and they were fine. Checked vacuum lines and cleaned up under the plenum and put it back together. It ran much better with a smoother idle, but still had an off idle stumble/miss. At this point I hadn't replaced the pumps yet. Both pumps individually made +50 psi and amp draw seemed fine, but pressure bled down very fast. I did go ahead and changed them. I did wipe out the tank and there was a good bit of corrosion on the assembly that I cleaned off. It was one of the pump check valves that was leaking back. The y fitting and hoses were fine but I did replace all the clamps. I put it back together and after priming them with the pump test connection it fired up and ran fine. The off idle stumble was gone. Not sure how the pumps caused that issue? It is possible that low battery voltage contributed to the stumble as I had to charge the battery in between attempts.

Now that it running well I was going to turn my attention to some cosmetic issues and high tach reading, but the heater core had other thoughts. It started dripping in the pass footwell. I have just bypassed it for now. I am sure that will a major pain in the *** to replace.
