    lol... Car is still ****ed.. Won't run for shit.. Have new intake gaskets, going to try that first. I read an intake leak can cause a MAF code(true, don't know). All I know is I am dumping fuel into the cylinders.. Mike(formulaZ) brought his MAF over, and it did not change a thing.. So ruling the MAF out...

    • doesnt seem right having to swap plugs just for an "occassional" 100 shot. and wouldnt you want the correct plugs before the tune? IDK? im hoping to not have any issues when mine goes back together. hope you figure it out soon

      • Well, found a little motivation today.. Removed some of the excess wiring from under my dash.. I am sure there is more, but my head was spinning from looking at all the damn wires running everywhere.. Found plenty of connections like the one shown(below excess wires). Think tomorrow I will do the LS6 PCV swap. Take a break from the wiring disaster..

          • Larry your not alone. It seems that every fbody I have owned had some dumbass go and f around with the wiring. My 83 had a parallel COMPUTER cable in it, for what reason I have no idea.

                • Well, fuel rail, injectors and intake back on... Everything plugged in.. Power up the fuel system, no leaks! Fuel pressure is reading 48/49 PSI after sitting for 10 minutes.. Oh and I found this today, while I know it was not the whole root of my problem(whatever the **** it was), I'm sure this didn't help!

                    That's a pretty good joke! I'm sure they were just f-n with you, Mr. Up-Tight-every-wire-needs-a-connection.

                        The wire plug wire fell apart today when I was pulling it off to change plugs... Everywhere I read says I should have 58 PSI at the rail, I am at 54(now).. Charging battery, wondering if that was causing a low reading? Also, have not started the car yet.. Still need a couple more things.. Hoping tomorrow..

                          Better talk to the LS gurus, my boat anchor TPI has an adjustable fuel pressure regulator on the fuel rail.

                          One idea did pop up; if you're wiring is that messed up you might have a bad connection to your fuel pump. If the voltage drops on the pump it won't have the same output.

                          • Should have 58 lary, HOWEVER, when the car is running its at 13.8v, not 12 how your testing it. Im going to assume thats the issue? Id start it for a few minutes then check before worrying to much about it. 54 is still plenty to run the car.

                              I had 63 at idle.. Only problem is, I have the same problem I had before... ****er won't run. I have 3 different MAF's, everyone throws a P0101 code.. Thinking I have some wiring issues or the PCM is cooked..
