I'm pretty busy with a couple right now - but would be more than happy to make a test run with the equipment hooked up - fuel pressure - scanner - etc...

I would also check for a vaccum issue on the feed line from the tank while running WOT. A simple t-fitting with an old school fuel pressure gauge will definately determine a starvation problem when running WOT.

I'm out on the San Jac - PM me if you need some help.

Hey Ross,

Looks like the River is headed back up again.

Lake Houston dam level is headed back towards 47' http://waterdata.usgs.gov/tx/nwis/uv...te_no=08072000

Not until the river is down, way too much crap and sand in it at the moment. Besides it's the beginning of 4-wheeling season in our part of town
