sweet i will try that also, thanks for the info.

wow sounds like ya`ll keep busy. im going to run timeing this weekend and see if my distributor is bad

Ok so i was looking around on here and found an old old post from 06 of a guy having the same problems as i am and did everything i have, he spent a few months working on the problem and finaly found the problem, it was the timeing/ distributor so im going to run the timeing light and see if my timeing is off then if it is replace the distributor and go from there.

is it posible to clean egr valve? also is it hard to change fuel injectors?

Thanks ill chec that tomorrow and let you know what i see. and i think it was the pass side i was looking at when i saw how much gas was being spraid into the intake. it sounds like its drowning when its running and you can smell its rich

Yeah i thought i had it running good last night so today i get in to go test it out on the trails and FAIL! running like crap AGAIN! changed the spark plugs, maf, tps, and cap and rotor all just in the last month. so i was messing with it most of the day and i think it is getting way to much gas, when i ran it it was ruff so i pulled the air filter and box and then looked at the intake while it was running crappy and gas was poring into the intake. think i need to analyze my fuel system. no codes on the cpu.

Thanks for the welcome fellas, got most of my issues worked out right now i just need to adjust the MAF and she should be good to go. thanks for the welcome

Wow im new to the SAS idea but so far i am lost lol

also i plan on checking for codes this weekend.

I do not know, but today i found an entirely new problem. havnt found out what it is but it making me mad. So today i start my truck and this time its running ruff. it started fine and idled a bit high then it was just ruff running so i drove it to the shoppett like 1/4 of a mile and it was sluggish and still ruff. So in the parking lot i opened the hood and pulled te air filter off and it ran a bit better, got me 3 miles to work and back. now it seams to be a spark, fuel or dirty top end. if i leave it idle when its cool it will almost die out so i have to goose the gas a bit. all this time there is hardly any power in the motor when up shifting it sputters and seams like its either out of gas or not enuph air to fuil mix. wish i knew a good mechanic as a friend that could come over and trouble shoot with me.

i use fram on everything! love fram filters

no, some how it started after i fixed the main seal

So i dropped my trans and replaced the rear main crank seal on my motor, had to replace the oil pan gasket to do so. When i got it all back together it ran like crap! so i started looking around and had to replace the Mass Airflow Sensor, ran i little better but not great. So i replaced the throttle positioning sensor and it ran a lot better so i removed the throttle body and cleaned to crap out of it. replaced all the vaccum lines and now she runs like a champ! i still need to adjust the clutch its all at the bottem now and im not sure what i need to do with it but it drives and a lot better than before. still have some tweeking to do with it but over all its good to go. need to redo my oil pressure swich the wires broke off and i need to replace the swich. also need to find some power in there somewhere. There is some power just not a lot.

i need to gt an O2 sensor mine is just cut off.

how did you mount that front bumper? i had a winch set up on my but it used the top bumber brakets and in a mudding incedent a few weeks ago i broke i off, right now the bumber is on wih only the bottom bolts and a smal small tack weld at the top. looking to re design my winch braket and plate so it is stronger.

i have a 1987 xe 4x4 i was looking for some ideas on solid front axle convertions. what axles should i look for and what to avoid. Also i was hoping to find some info in exhost turbos and horse power upgrades. any ideas on disc break convertions for the rear end? just looking for some ideas to upgrade my truck. love my pathy and want to enjoy the next 190,000 miles im gonna put on her before she gets put down lol she has 310,000 right now.

nunya, the maf has a missing wire like thing between the 2 posts. and i will bleed the clutch through a few more times i did miss the dampener bleed. Ill try that in the morning its cold and windy out. thank you for the info! hope to be driving her soon

Ok, so my rear main seal went bad on my motor so a friend and i dropped the tranny and oil pan on the motor to replace it. Before doing any work the truck ran great no problmes at all, after the tranny and everything was back together there have been nothing BUT problems. First i started it up and ran like crap so i looked into it and the mass airflow sensor is compleatly messed up. found a new one online for $80 waiting for it to come in. now im haveing clutch problems. the clutch petal felt strange when i put the tranny back in so today i bled the lines and topped off the fluid now the pettle goes all the way to the floor and sticks there. nothing i can do fixes the isue. any ideas on what the problem is? i looked under the dash and everyting looks fine then i looked at the slave cylinder and it seams fine. no leaks anywhere not loosing fluid just will not stiffen up. cant even tell if it is working, idk please help

Oops i put this in the wrong forum, sorry
