Hi Brian,

That’s some crazy heat and almost doesn’t sound feasible to get that hot that fast...

At some point you really need to start going after the problem in a systematic fashion. An IR thermometer and timing light can be had for less than $20-30 each and would be a good start.

A leakdown and compression test could eliminate or highlight mechanical issues.

A smoke test can pinpoint any vacuum leaks- CIS doesn’t like vacuum leaks!

A CIS fuel pressure testing kit would be good as you work your way through any fuel delivery problems. The thread on CIS for dummies is great for testing your fuel injection.

Good luck on solving this and hopefully others can chime in on what might be a good order of testing to do.

I’m not sure if you have shared your general location if not it might be a good idea as there could be someone local who could help or loan you some tools.
