Any ideas? Plugs fouled after 2 minutes

[Formula Z]

your local auto parts store may be able to rent one out. ill check around with people i know. why dont you just buy a fuel pressure gauge and install it in that 3rd vent?

I agree with Larry - your problem was the MAF was bad and the plugs kept fouling out. You replaced the MAF which fixed the code - now your car isn't throwing the MAF code, I would think with new plugs you'd be OK?

Your selling your injectors, Larry?

yep.. Tuner recommended 28.8s.. My car has always ran rich, have the equivalent of 36# inj in my car explains it.. I have no need for 36ers..

Get it tuned then

bigger injectors will be fine they just need to be tuned properly, if you add a set of heads down the road you'll be upgrading injectors again anyways.

Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator with a Fuel Pressure Gauge? Dial down on the fuel pressure. Twas what I had to do. Bought myself a matched set (within 1%) of Ford 19 pound Injectors (Fords way of rating) installed. Ran rich. During the tune, we kept dialing back on the fuel pressure. Normally with 19's, fuel pressure should be 43 to 45 pounds. I'm at 37 pounds on the fuel pressure now.

Another thing I've read. No way of knowing if true or not. Ford's method of rating injectors output differs from GM's way. 19 pound Fords would measure out at near 21 pounds using GM's way of measuring.

Just some extra thoughts Larry.

the last part of your post is highly debated. It depends on the injector manufacturer, and I cant speak for the red tops. I know that my Ford (Bosch) green tops flowed 42 lbs @ 3 bar even tho these are a ford injector and "should" flow more

he does not have an adjustable FPR so any changes need to be done within the tune itself.

If you go back to 28's it will need to be tuned anyway

exactly.. i told you this yesterday larry.. either way u will need a tune.. might as well keep the 36's even tho you already bought a set of 28's

36's would probably be nice for when you install those 243's and a bigger cam too.

Not going to do heads or a bigger cam.. Calling about a tune now.. This is my last round of mods.. Next move will be to sell, within the next 2-4 years..
