I have an 87 TII and it lacks a crapload of power and backfires like hell when i let off the gas. It started after I took my vaf, intake piping and intercooler off. I put everything back together correct, unless I didn't notice some tiny *** vacuum line or something. After that, I went to drive home and about 30 seconds after driving it, it just lost all power, it could barely make it up hills. It also takes forever to rev up. I checked everything again two times after that. My injectors leak really bad when the car sits. Could it be my injectors not spraying right? I also checked everything with my ignition. Anyone have any thoughts?

 

Double check for a vac leak.

Do you still have your cats?

 

Definitaly a vacuum leak.

 

you didn't put it back on correct...

check the TID between the turbo and AFM. make sure the AFM is pluged in. take off the IC piping and make sure it's on tight. make sure both vac lines going into the IC are there.

as well as the one going into the TID with the check vavle

 

I don't have any cats. I'll check the vacuum lines after I wake up. Thanks for the replies.

 

 

I checked the vacuum lines, they're all in the right spot and they're all there. The intake is put on right. The problem still remains. Any other ideas? I have injectors coming in a day, hopefully that's it.

Maybe you have a blown engine, you fat son of a bitch. I'll be over to help you put your jdm in, not like you'll check this by the time I come over, but whatever.

 

sounds like a vacume leak because if the leak is at the tid it will still run fine but idle like shiznit. i know my ran and boosted fine when i had hole in my tid and when it was coming off. it just idled like crap
