restart

Hi

I have been driving my car a little. When it is warm I have had to prime it by pouring gas into the throttle bodies so it will restart. It runs fine. But, when I go to restart the TBI injector dribbles gas. Then it is all good. Whatsup?

Than you.

It is a 1984 with a manual transmission and cross fire injection units. Bone stock as far as I know.

This is great thank you.
I did not notice any leak into the TBI throats. In fact when we tried to restart the warm engine the injector dribbled gas. Once primed it ran fine.

Does each TBI unit have it's own fuel pressure regulator or is the one for the car. An where is it. every time I google it I get a pluffer of results.
Oh and my cooling fan is not going on. The fan works. and I replaced the relay. Where is the sensor that actually tells the fan t go on.
Thank you. I cannot believe there are so many little things wrong with this car, gotta love em.
