Anyone in the Ill, Ind, MI area driving over on Thursday?

Where’s the car located?

I'll take the struts, shocks and springs if still available. My zip is 89801.

I've got my room reserved. I figure the drive from Nevada will be worth it for the 35 year anniversary. Now I just have to stop making build changes and get the car done.

Please keep us posted on what you find. Have you run into the exhaust police yet?

You need to determine if you have an issue with your pressure gauge and/or schraeder valve. I suggest you pull the fuel supply line off at the rail and see if you’re getting any fuel when you cycle the key on. Also, check voltage at the pumps.

I was referring to the "test hookups" picture with the 2 diagrams on it. If you're trying to use a test light, insert one end into the test plug and attach the other end to battery positive. I've never used a test light to check codes so I just tried it on one of my cars. Test Light1.jpg

If you’re using a test light, follow the diagram on the left.

Any Salt Lake members on the board? My son is in Salt Lake attending the University of Utah. His 89 XR started acting up yesterday and I can't get there until next Saturday. The car is stumbling and hesitating under boost. He can drive it but has to stay out of boost.

Thanks,

Dan
