Apparently they are spec'd @ 24lbs. I have a matched set but they only flow close to 22.5. Thats strange now i just research these jetronics.. Also looks like my truck will be going in to get retuned.... ARG!

Right that how-to link is good, - IF you can find the kits. I haven't looked to see who else carries them. Ryans product site is still down (RJM Tech), - www.rjminjectiontech.com/?p=22

Also, - with a little voltage and you can run solution threw them.

Just another way to clean and/or check for leaker's if need be.

Swap started last week. Still in the process of getting it done but all the heavy lifting is done.

2v is out.


Engine bay was filthy from a leak in the power steering so had to clean that up. Here's what it looks like.


4v going in.




And yesterday I finally got the trans mounted to the block with torque converter lined up and everything. This was by far the most challenging part of the whole process. Now I have to put all the other parts on and around it and do one final cleaning of everything. Hoping to be done on Friday. Here's how it sits now.

Saweeett! Looking good my man. Can't wait for it to be finished and for you to get us a video of it running just so we can hear what all your hard work put in it sounds like.
