7K power loss
Allright... 89GTU K&N, cold air duct, no cats-Bonez race pipe, Racing beat catback.....
She runs good up 'till 7k and then the power drops off radically...... didn't do that before i opened her up....
Spark plugs had a really light tan coating on the ends when i changed them last week (this meant "lean" when i was running two stroke M/C's)
Also... seems to run better at 4/5 trottle than FWO.
Planning on checking these things
1) ECU Codes (duh)
2) Fuel Pressure
3) A/F ratio with a wideband (when I can find one!)
Anybody else run into this???? Suspect problems?????
I'm open to suggestions!!!
Anybody have a link to how to PROPERLY set the TPS on an 89-91??
