Ok so we were adjusting the CO screw and it ended up falling in the manifold. So I got pissed and decided to tear it all down to the heads and do a full intake/ fuel system refresh. Better to start off at a known new point then deal with old stuff.

I talked to Roger on the phone on Saturday and he said "you need a fuel pressure test kit to make sure all your pressures are correct". So since I didn't have a gage and neither did Rob, and the fact that I hate borrowing tools I went out and bought myself a new toy :-) I love new toys.

Harbor Freight had a nice kit that covers all the fuel injection systems including the CIS units. It was 89.00, not bad IMO. Looks like the same kit most others sell with a different sticker.

So we began tearing **** apart.

Getting a list of stuff I need to order from Roger. Here is a short list of what I am going to start with.
Plenum gaskets
Spider gaskets
New silicone vacuum hoses
Replacing all the hoses on the upper end
Redoing the fuel lines to the injector with new braided hoses.
New fuel hoses(still has originals on it)
New fuel filter
New cam seal(drivers side is leaking)
Smog pump delete

And cleaning everything up as I go.

That should be a good start. If anyone else can think of other things let me know.

Thanks Ramon
