Last week we took the twin to Shoshone Falls, and had a nice picnic. On the way back, I was barely under a 1/4 tank, and it started cutting out, and stalled a couple times. By the time the fuel light came on, it was done. AAA came thru and got us and the car the 85 miles home.

Once home, it started right up. It threw a code, but I could not connect to ECU with my ODBII dongle and Torgue app TO read. I have an Ecutek tune. Does it lock the ECU? Do I need to use my Ecutek junk to connect? I have never done that.

I put a couple gallons of fuel in, and engine light went away, but fuel pressure is only at 49-50. Shouldn't it be at 59-60?

I bet that "screen" in the fuel.pump housing is clogged AGAIN. Although, I have never had the fuel that low since I put in the fuel flapper door. Hell, I've only put about 1000 miles on the car in the last year.

Looks like I'm going into the tank.

OR, just don't let your car run low on fuel -

Well, should be plenty of gas when the fuel light comes on, and even if my gauge is messed up, low fuel wouldn't explain the lower pressure.

Well, OK, do it your way, tear the gas tank apart - but, NO huffing!

5th engine for Mr. Blue has been ordered. If this one catches covid, arrives damaged or is never shipped... I'm paying one you hoonigans to make her disappear chop-shop style.

I'm a fan of loud exhausts but man with uel header and almost straight piped I've never heard a car sound so bad. Looks like hks dual resonated front pipe is on the way.

I referred you to them. I only wanted two of them, you get the third one. When I licked the third one, she tasted "sick and wrong". -

You could pay me with free food, free drink, and $2000 and I still wouldn't hang out in a dive bar with COVID around.

Have you considered an LS swap? -
