will not idle changed the plugs, cap, rotor , and check the wire all good but still runing too rich but why ?? any help plz :annoyed: or i might have to put rag in the gas tank lite it up lol:annoyed:
 
IAC, 02 sensor, ETC.

Pull codes to see if anything is going on
 
Mine had a bad fuel pressure regulator and also someone had removed the solenoid for the fuel vapor cannister and hooked the line right to the throttle body. I had the fuel pressure checked and it showed fine.....but still ran rich. I checked the fuel pressure with my cousins tester and it showed bad,it was one of those problems that was fine when someone else checked it. Part of my idle problem was also a bad IAC valve that only messed up here and there....when I whacked it with a screwdriver handle it would die or almost die. Running rich can also be bad ground wires...there are several. If you can afford it have it diagnosed on a computer tester not a code checker,I did and saved time and money not replacing things that wasn't bad.

well i change the fuel press reg. and it still run rich but i change the map sen. and now i have no fuel . the pump in the tank not workin i think its a ground prob. ps i did put the old map back on and still no pump ps john u :icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl::icon_rofl:give me
 
i need a fuel pump that is why i am not gettin any fuel now and the fuel pump is only 2 months old need less to say if i had a stick of tnt i would have nice bonfire :annoyed::annoyed::annoyed:
 
Did you test the pump to make sure it doesnt work?

I'd suspect a wire connection issue, relay or inertia switch first....
