Hi Guys newbee here. I'm going nuts trying to fix my wife's car and was hoping to get some help. I stopped at the store came out and it cranked with no start. I brought it back to the shop , checked the spark and injector pulse. No injector pulse but has spark. injectors had power. I replaced the ECM with a rebuilt Cardone brand and it started right up but runs rich as hell. I will try to not make a long winded story, over 9 months time of working on it when time allowed I have replaced the ignition module, distributor rebuilt, throttle position sensor ,fuel pressure regulator ,ignition coil , dist. cap, ignition wires ,spark plugs ,8 new fuel injectors, map sensor , new oxygen sensors, all new vacuum lines, reman computer, new fuel pump, blew through all fuel lines pressure and return , checked firing order checked TDC and conformed the rotor is phased properly. The timing is set to 10 deg. with spout disconnected. fuel pressure is 35 psi. What am I missing. I have tried 3 different maps 2 different pressure regulators 3 different ignition modules. today I ordered a new ACT sensor and the coolant temp sensor on the heater core pipe. I will install them as soon as I get them. and will post the results. One odd thing is the fuel pump starts as soon as the key is on no short pulse of fuel and then off. runs constantly. There is no check engine light in this car. I picked up a cheap code reader today and will try to pull codes tomorrow. With the exception of the harness there are no more parts that can be defective. I'm suspecting a bad calibration on the computer I bought. If this was OBD2 I could hook it up to the Snap on scanner and get some info. Any help would be great .
