Fuel pressure too high carbed


Actually, your comment about getting it to run by flooring it tells me your primary jet is plugged...happened to me and I could only run mine with WOT...found a piece of teflon tape lodged in the primary jet (the one on the right facing the carb)...

You can access that by pulling the top off the carb (don't have to pull the whole carb) and you will see the jets...they can be removed with a screwdriver and cleaned...if it is plugged you will be able to see the blockage unless something is lodged in the jet...

This, btw, will result in high fuel consumption and very poor performance...
 
We were talking about O2 sensers last I checked...
Sorry about that when you said them i had no idea because there is only one ( on mine anyways ) maybe theres the problem lol

Im so tempted to go outside right now 1:13 AM and check but it will wait for tomorrow and further inspection of my fuel lines revealed no kinks sharp bends anything like that lines are good so the high pressure must be carb related. Also on a side note http://olympic.craigslist.org/cto/3057979942.html
this guy wants to trade for a b2 what do you guys think just from the post? I mean id absolutely agree my B2 isnt worth his ranger but hey who knows i have other things i can trade as well, i dont really care about the body damage i have friends in autobody at school :D Anyways i contacted him because if the motor really only has 39k on it its a steal at 1500 i think but i think what he means by that is that hes put 39k on it since its been in his truck. Also im weary if its actually an 88 he said there was a 2.8 originally if it really was a 88 it would have a 2.9 originally. i see no other flaws let me know what you guys think. Also forgot to add in WOT?
 
well i cleaned out the jets there was a little bit of gunk but i think thats just because of unthoroughness when i rebuilt it, but it didnt solve my problem. Unfortunately im going to go sell some of my valuables cause im tight on money right now and get a new tfi i think and pay insurance. So what i want to do is go to a autoparts store and have them test all my sensors and everything see what all i need to get. So ive been driving around my truck with two dead cylinders possibly more possibly less but im pretty sure its two if they were getting weak spark and burning gas as opposed to spontaneously combusting them might i have a burnt valve if so is it worth still trying or might i just pass this on as a mechanics special? The reason i think they were burning gas is because the 2 cylinders that i think are dead i pulled the plugs and they were very very carbon fouled but all the others were lightly carbon fouled ( i am running very rich after all) should i stop driving my truck now or is it safe to keep driving? What would you guys do?
