7.4 lx efi falls on its face and hesitates
 
I've got a 7.4 lx efi the motor is tbi injected the problem I'm having with it is it falls on its fact on the top end. I have replaced cap, rotor, plugs, wires, checked fuel pressure 30psi under load, set timing at 8 degrees in base timing mode, replaced fuel water separator and still is doggy any thoughts?

I believe there is another filter by the throttle body also. Dump your separator in a coffee can (yes again) and see what you have.

Nick454 05-27-2015 06:50 AM

No other fuel filters but I will drain the seporator and see what I get

Nick454 05-28-2015 07:27 PM

Drained the seporator and hooked an aux tank up with fresh fuel no change
