Default 84 back on the road

Well, I got her running and back on the road. Feels great. Car runs smooth and hard. Installed new starter this morning and new injectors work fantastic. Glad its back to normal. Rough go there with the hydrolock with gas when I changed injectors. But all in all it could have been alot worst. I am just glad its running and running good.
I just finished washing her and she looks great. I am very happy to have her running again and back on the road. Been a long 2 weeks. I know it does not sound long, but its long to me.

I feel your pain. Mine is in the garage with the intake manifold off to change the gasket. Glad you got yours back on the road.

Are you talking about changing the injectors on the crossfire here? If so what went wrong?

He had a thread in the last week or so about the engine & cylinders being filled with gas.
