anyone? i was thinking maybe its time to send the injectors out to be bench flow tested or maybe i should just buy a set of fast 60's. because either i have weak coils or a bad set of wires.

Have You Checked The Coios Themselves? I Had To Replace Two On My Wife Burb After It Sat For 8 Months. They Would Only Fire Every Other Time.

ok so here is the issue. problem 1 i have the wrong plugs in the truck. i need a tr6 plug. problem 2 if you change the gap on a the tr6 plugs it has the potential to ruin the plug. i changed them from .035 to .050. when you do the spark test i have great spark before the plug but at the plug its significantly weaker. problem 3 if you close loop tune a silverado and you dont know what you are doing it makes the engine run like ****.

to ANYONE in the bay area Nick at Newtech is a douche he tuned my truck and my buddies camaro wrong. but at least my friends camaro is driveable. now im out 550 bucks for a tune that doesnt work. wonderful.

Ok down here we all run the tr55 gapped at. 45 for motor. İ would run my 346 on these and never had a problem with my truck even dynoed it and had 447rwhp and went constant 12.3s with the stock truck intake. İ believe the prob u may be having might be the tune.
