It was running like crap, today i couldnt even get it to stay running, turns out that the hose clamp on the intake at the turbo was lose it was giving the car a funky reading for the afm, the numbers above are after i fixed that. Now i have rough idle, and flooding, its always had the rough idle so thats not a new issue. so the problems are going away as i tinker with you guys help. When i got it, it was so bad the owner flat out told me the engine was blown. That was just a busted heater core hose causing it to lose coolant and overheat. Im thinking the injectors are bad, if i pull the fuse and crank for a while then put it back, it starts.







So does any of that sound right or plausible???

I promise you... You are not pulling 19 PSI in vacuum. you're pulling 19 inHg
