iv gone through about 3 tanks since it started, its just getting worse everyday. everything started when my distributor rotor button melted.

u think weak fuel psi could cause it? i installed some preformance injectors

Hemifatboy · Oct 3, 2015

After you installed the injectors it started acting up?
The melted rotor is something , how hot was it getting ?

Hemifatboy · Oct 3, 2015

Is it throwing any codes?

if a wire was bad wouldnt it just missfire?

Merc225hp · Oct 3, 2015

Yea there is a reason. In my experience and others stock injectors are fine for 400 hp. Four hole Injectors are to fat for what you have going on motor wise. Later tonight I will look those injectors up and see what they flow. I would rather see u use the old org ones first and go from there.

ill most definatly swap back to the stocks, do you think i should put another set of wires on it too?

its not overheating but it reads about 220 on temp gauge. any reason for that?
