Try a noid light on your injectors and a ohm meter should be 12 or over ohms. Test and post your results

I'll check them again, but I did check the ohms of the injectors a couple months ago. All 8 were within 13.4-13.6.

Got a fews things to do first, so it'll be a few hours before I can check the injectors and try Cliff's trick. I'll post back with results.

With Cliffs trick for it to run.


If the injectors don't ohm as good as they were might have found the problem.

fuel rail bolts. pop up the fuel rail and injectors. get 8 paper cups and drop the rail on top with each injector in a cup. prime the fuel pump and go check for leaks.

For what to run?

The car itself runs. I can drive it without it stalling out or worrying about it not starting. It just doesn't have even close to the power it had before these problems started and it starting giving the 55 code.

Or to keep the fuel pump running like it does to prime the car where it gives 40 PSI on the rail.

If I have the money, I'll replace it also. Otherwise, I will when I get the money. Rent due the middle of next week so....

Good luck!

I have an LS3 pump from my Supercharger swap on my C6. Too bad I can't use that. Lol
