Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

regal top swapped problems



You didn't have to replace the entire fuel rail. It's very soft metal and will bend, you could have just bent it back. I did that to mine and it's still going strong.

Um no it was so bent already and it just would no longer seal my injector regardless of being bent over and over. Lol
 
wheres your evap purge solenoid? i see the fat hose off the tb but loose it.

it should be back here, next to the map thats not mounted. not even sure i se a vac line going to the map either????

ok, if that red plugged part is the evap, where the other line from it? thats a huge vac leak right there, that solenoid gets a line to both sides, one side comes from the tb, the other line runs to the gas tank.
 
They are both plugged in correctly. The line that goes to the throttle body is there and so is. The line that goes to the tank. Reread how i routed my lines. I followed both of your guys instructions. It hooked up correctly with the vacuum lines its just mess the way it is.
 
Also its gotten worse with the hesitation/ stutter, when attempting to floor it i get to 4500 rpms when it shifts. And the stutter happens at anything above 3k rpms. No one answered my question as to whether i should regap my plugs?. And when that hesitation happens it feels more of like a cut off because boy does that thing jerk you around. I literally feel it cut off and then resume cut off and then resume. But sometimes its at a quicker pace and sometimes it's at a slower pace
 
you can gap then at .55 or 60 some go to 50

it seems like its either fuel or spark giving you issues. you change the pump yet? or was the used one not the same?
 


They are gapped to .50 already, I didn't get the pump yet, and dont wanna get a used one. Thats what i thought. Idk my thoughts are leaning toward fuel also. Ive replaced all spark components already, which was my coil packs, plugs, wires, icm. Is it true that the little spark plug shields can cause them to short making it act like a misfire
 
And. A sound that sounds like a rod knock when in drive or reverse and sometimes in park. Goes away when any type of revving is happening whether its festhering the pedal ect. But it's only heard in the cabin not in the engine bay
 


I know but its not always there nor is it loud and the ac turns it off. Like right now its gone, and then my anti lock brake light turned on. And then shut off idk my cars being a little *****. I turned my tires to try and stick my face towars the block... no dice no sounds nothing just purrs had my girlfriend put it into drive while i layed on the engine and again nothing. I revved it and nothing. I drove home and it did it again so i layed on the engine again cant here it put it by a wall no echo. I can literally only hear it in the car. And it happed all of a sudden. I got to the corner by my home and i heard it knock but only inside car
 
It was, i bet you because of the changing of the vac lines finally gave the right flow and now i have knock, on top of that i wasnt getting thr right flow from a leaking injector either so yes i wasnt getting flow which means it should show knock because the boost is lower, and again its not like im ropping on it 24/7 either. So again i dont think its rod knock because i know that knock all to well with my prior regal.
