Fuel filter, maybe some injector cleaner:tu:
|
its got a new fuel filter and the last fill up i put in a bottle of kleen in the tank i havent checked it yet though
|
You have not told us if its a 12V or 24V?
Judging by your fuel pressure its a 24V correct? |
its a 24v
|
a 53 block was a block that is prone to cracking on the side of the block there is a number stamped on it you will know
|
not enough fuel pressure!!!!!
:td: |
if that isnt enough pressure i need a lift pump right? how much is it supose to have?
|
Minimum 10 PSI at WOT. 15-18 at idle is good.
|
Debatable point but RAWilliams is right on the money.
Heres some very good #53 block info: 53 Block FAQ and Information |
