Hard starting.. Reply #35 – November 05, 2012, 02:47:44 PM The tps should be between .49v and 1.27 I believe before it will throw a code, at idle. As long as it see's about 2.5v's over idle reading, it goes into wot. Anything from 2.5v's or higher from idle is fine, as long as it does not exceed 5v's.Do a sweep slowly with the key on, engine off to make sure there are no dead spots. When resetting idle, all you need to do is clear codes (after writing down what they are...) unplug iac, set the idle set screw to about 600 rpm's, then plug the iac back in. If you don't have a ton of vacuum leaks and your sensors are working correctly, that is all that Quote Selected

Your posts are staring to sound nonsensical. Are you ok?BTW, the 351 is 5.8 liters, and you'll have to do more that swap the cam and firing order. woo hoo. Quote Selected
Hard starting.. Reply #37 – November 05, 2012, 09:02:21 PM I would like to move up to a 351C some day. From what I have found out I would have to change the distributor, but it seems that a lot of parts are interchangeable between my 302 and the 351C. Quote Selected

Reply #40 – November 06, 2012, 12:57:58 AM the 351w and the 302 are exact same motor both small blocks, and windsor series except the 351 has a slightly tall deck height.all parts will interchange..yes im fine..lol this isnt my first fox car....last car was a 347 stroker 85 capri....im just not up on this efi stuff, im a old school mechanic, love my carbs lol.

Hard starting.. Reply #41 – November 06, 2012, 01:46:00 PM What gets me is when I check out Jeg's or Summit racing they have a lot more carbs. than fuel injection manifolds. Some of their carbs. are fuel injected. I guess it has to do with looks under the hood and that EFI really doesn't have that many parts. Quote Selected
