Long shot, but I need an injector for an 86. I need only one but if anyone has 2 I'll take 2

Looking for a 5 speed manual transmission it's not going into a quest but a 86 power ram 50 4x4 I believe it's the same transmission but have to switch the tail shaft my truck has a mpi 2.6 need something in good shape no noise let me know what you have thanks

Man Kev ... I know pictures can sometimes be deceiving, but the car looks really sharp in these photos you posted. It's come a long way. You're inspiring me to try my hand at painting this VR4 myself.
-
The only way to know for sure if the car is running too rich is installing a wideband 02 sensor.
-
Honestly I would if I had the time to! haha, but i'll double check spark for sure!

The cut out could very well be a leaking vacuum advance. Really bad smell of fuel? What do the plugs look like?

S13 front suspension swap in a Z31. SQ possibility, How-to.

Sweet. I have their subframe, but I'm kind of f'ed because now I need to figure out mounting for a steering rack or factory gearbox.

Said you checked spark, but didn't tell us how you did it. I use an in-line spark tester and it makes life SO much easier. No questions about spark then. Fuel definitely looks good. Seems like it revved fine at one point. Based on that I would mostly rule out mechanical failures and fuel pump. Doesn't even turn over now?? Throw it on a trailer and come on over. We will figure it out 😎

No Increased noise, I heard the injectors clicking when I used the screwdriver trick. But would it be worth taking them out and inspecting? The AFR that the previous owner has in the car shows the car as running Lean when it ran (Halmeter Af30), though i’m not sure how accurate it is. I don’t think i’m well versed enough to spot a leak, but when it ran I think the vacuum showed about 20 psi I’ll attach a vid. Definitely no check engine light but I will check the ECU if I can figure out how, haha. Sorry if it’s a bit difficult helping me out, but I really do appreciate it! Not a lot of mitsu experts in my area. For some reason it doesn’t turn over even when cold now so this is the closest I have to a video of it running. If I can find a vid of it idling i’ll upload that aswell Thanks!

So, Navy Fed ended up giving me my money back. Been with them since before OCS. I talked with Michigan Metal Works, who can build these, if I send him a K member and control arms. I may buy an OEM one just to send to him and keep my car rolling. https://www.facebook.com/MichiganMetalWorks I do about 30K a year in business with them, they always deliver a quality product, on time.

Yes, you have good fuel pressure. Do you hear any increased noise of the fuel pump as it gets warmer? Typically, if the pump is the issue, It will be howling loud when it is hot. If not, I'd put aside fuel (but leave that gauge on there if you can). Injectors may be a culprit though but being that it does run when cold, I'm not sure I'd focus on them at the moment. Any air leaks in the intake system? The smallest of a leak can cause the car to die, especially after it comes up to temp...including vacuum leaks. You can cap off every vacuum port and try it...leaving it at idle (don't drive the car without at least the vac advance connected though, but idling is fine). Any codes on the ECU? In the video, it looks like there is a bunch of stuff added to your car over the years (turbo timer, etc.). Disconnect all of that as you work to diagnose your problem. I've learned to always start with what either I or a previous owner 'changed/altered' on the car.

thats good fuel pressure .

Honestly dies to fast too try I'll try to diag. the coolant sensors and such, also further test spark. I'm pretty new to the scene, I bought this car as my first REAL project so hopefully i'll figure it out haha. Thanks, I'll update whenever I try to diagnose coolant sensors. Update: Had my friend check fuel pressure on crank, he said it looked good. I don’t think it does but idk what to look for. here’s the vid of pressure on crank

Windshield Clip and Trim replacement / installation
kev replied to techboy's topic in Virtual Mechanic
I use 'SEM trim black' on the window trim and really all of the satin black trim on these cars, as well as any car really. I love the stuff. -
When it goes to stall, can you keep it running at all...by goosing the throttle, etc? The coolant temperature sensor may be the issue. If you connect a 300 ohm resistor between the two poles of the connector, it will simulate a fully warm condition. Worth a try if you have a resistor handy (I miss radioshack).

if you have fuel and spark it should run.unless timing off, the spark jumping in cap,or mecanical failure.it is possible if the coolant sensor for ecu is faulty and reading like -40 degrees .

Yeah, went out today to check spark and swapped out spark plugs for new ones (all good on that front). The car now has a slow crank still but wont start anymore leading me to believe that it is an issue with the alternator. I also checked for fuel, fuel pressure is as it should be and both injectors are firing. fuel pressure and spark are good, i get a slow crank when trying to start now and tried a jump but fast crank no start aswell.
