    1996 VP 5.7L TBI Base timing value.

    Hi, I need to check my base timing on my 5.7L TBI - ECM 1 - Delco EST ignition system (distributor and coil). - I have a scan tool to plug into Data Link to get base timing mode. The question I have is : From the base timing procedure, it says, go to 1000 RPM, select base timing mode and adjust...

    GM350 TBI hesitates when accelerating fast...

    I did a bit more troubleshooting yesterday. weather isn't cooperating and it's only going to get worse from now on. I just wanted to re check a few things. - Compression on all 8 cylinders around 130 psi - The motor is equipped with a MEFI 1 ECM. I used the manual to check the timing and I need...

    GM350 TBI hesitates when accelerating fast...

    Ok thanks. I will look for the part #. I replaced the MAP sensor, no luck. I am going to do another compression check and start over.. Today I kept the fuel pressure gauge connected while drive testing, the 11 PSI is steady, never drops even when engine is acting up. Also, if throttle...

    GM350 TBI hesitates when accelerating fast...

    First I would like to thank you all for all your help. This motor was rebuilt in 2003 by Quicksilver and this is the only info I can find on the motor (see pic). It isn't the ideal situation where I could tell you what year and SN this motor is. Bottom line is, it looks like at some point the...

    Definitively not enough pressure, if this is where I am suppose to check it... I was trying to get some specs on the TBI injectors and the fuel diagram of our host doesn't show a part # for the 2 injectors??? Anybody knows what those injectors should be? I want to verify that I have the...

    GM350 TBI hesitates when accelerating fast...

    Gm350 TBI engine. Idles fine, if I apply throttle gently, no issues. However if I try to do a hole shot, motor hesitates, misfires or backfires (can't tell) then accelerates normally. Also while at 4400 Rpm if I go to neutral rapidly, no misfire or backfire. Works fine. The only issue is Hole...

    VST question for 5.7L TBI....

    I couldn’t get the top off. I was afraid to damage something and this part being unavailable, that would have been too costly . All dodge, thanks for your help too.
