VinhZXT Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 This is my ECU. Sorry about the blurry pictures. I just read thru most of your posts and I think it worth a try to look at the EGR valve. Do you still have the vacumm like connected to the EGR valve? Just disconnect it and test it out. The ECU connector would be the next guess on my list.

Heroez Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Ok. I will try removing the line to the EGR and plug it so its not a leak. Go for a test drive, see what happens. I will report the results for you. Thanks for reading and giving a suggestion. I may not have mentioned that the car and engine is very clean and well taken car of. Right now I have to install the AFM that I had out for testing. That goes pretty quick. Can someone please post a pic or describe in detail how the AFM ground wire should be attached? I have one I made, just unsure where it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heroez Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 I will also look further into the 81 ECU. I just dont want to damage anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srgunz Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I was thinking EGR valve myself. They will leak exhaust into the intake when bad. (stuck). This would cause a mixture problem. If origional I would replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heroez Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 It does appear to be original equipment, or at least the same condition as other parts on the intake manifold. Looks like I wont have time to work on it untill the weekend. Are the NGK plug wires original equipment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
