Re: check engine problem
how often does the CEL come on? what are the normal conditions that make it pop up? i would guess it is the chip that is in your ecu. who did your basemap? even if it is a basemap it should still drive fine unless the guy who made it is a complete moron

Re: check engine problem
so other then that it runs like complete ---- with no CEL? and it sounds liek you just got th emotor back in and started up after a rebuild, might want to triple check all plugs and grounds to make sure everythign is nice and tight.

Re: check engine problem
440s injectors on a stock ecu don't work to well it dumps way to much fuel. You as may want to check his soldering in the ecu to make sure he did i good job a bad connection could ---- it all up.

should i just put back the OEM injectors and ECU and see how the car runs? if so would i have to change back to OEM fuel pump as well?

didnt think i had to do that on an OBD1 if that is the case than that might be the problem. So your saying i have to but a resistor on?
