Finally someone said it, I did and worked for a frame and alignment shops including bodyshops as a frame/alignment tech. And he's right about the red and green most working the machines don't understand about radial pull or caster pull. ❤

Glad you found out about those plates. I was considering the Amazon ones. Also, I got some blue 24 lbs injectors I'm not using for my build. I've upgraded to fuel injector clinic 50 lbs. If you're interested I'll sell them cheap.

If I may suggest if you have 160 to spare, take your ecu out and send it off to ecu exchange and have them overhaul/rebuild it so you know it’s freshened up and good to go. Reason I say this is because that was my problem with low idle surging problem. When I got my computer back the car ran so much better, more smoother. It’s never ran so good. It’s well worth the money imo, these cars and the efi system is over 30 years old and computer parts aren’t made to last forever especially in the elements.

Hey man, not sure if you mentioned it or figured it out by now but you need to make sure the maf is calibrated for the 19lb injectors... if not it will definitely have problems idling. Good luck and keep at it.

Back in the day you used to be able to "clock" the maf too to help with idle surge. There also used to be an idle plate you could put in between the iacv and throttle body. I sure dont miss these issues lol

For injectors I went with accel 24lb, had to change whole nine yards - bbk 75mm throttle body , pro-m 75mm MAF , mine is fully built heads, cam, systemax, it's very fast but drivability like it was when it was stock? Is over! You loose that seamless easy nice driving nice running fox, trouble starts as soon as you change that cam

Hey man love the videos. I learned some stuff on the alignment to help my car. Thank you. I was just wondering your check engine light is on have you check codes? Some times the computer can fry the capacitors and it will drive but it's in limp mode. If you run diagnostics and the computer will not give you codes that's a fryed computer they sell a capacitors kit online to fix this. Hope this helps. I love the content and your sense of humor is killer. Keep up the videos dude.

May need to unhook the battery for a while each time you make changes like to that TPS, not 100 % sure but worth a try, I suspected I had a leak and hooked up a smoke machine and smoke actually came out of the top of my TPS that came with a hole in the top, came new already attached to the bbk 75mm throttle body so I put the old TPS back on that didn't have a hole through the top and set mine at .96 and it did better but I think it's different for each setup

get car up to operating temp shut car off, disconnect iac start car, get it to idle with the screw make sure your tps is close to .96-.98 volts at idle get it within that range, if it was way off you may need to re-adjust the screw to get idle back where you want it shut car off, disconnect battery for 15 min reconnect iac, reconnect ground, start car idle=profit
