MPFI conversion
« on: December 11, 2010, 08:07:35 AM »
I have an 87 Silerado i have been workin on the past 2 years. The engine is a 350 .40 over with 10.5 to 1 compresion. The cam has a 480/498 lift 226/234 duration at .050 that breaths through a set of Pro torker vortec 2.02/1.6 heads. The engine is fed by an Edelbrock Pro Flo 3502 efi and 670 holley throttle body. My chip was design to spec by Westers Garage. My problem is the truck is gettin way to much fuel. I discovered that the vacuume line on the MAF sensor was broke i replaced it and it seemed to help but it did not fix the problemany onehave any other suggestions.

I think you mean MAP sensor. Make sure you have a good vacuum signal to the map sensor. Do you have diagnostic interface capabilities?

You may want to ask some more questions over at Edelbrocks forum

I know this sounds like a dumb question but how do you know it's getting too much fuel?

The engine will flood out and stall at idle, Spews smoke that turns to black with an increase of throttle, Spark plugs soaked in fuel
