Check out How to pull a G10. The large socket has to connect with something fairly close but I don't recognize it. Second pic is of the Throttle Body ground wires, see #19 in starscream5000's link. The small wire may be a starter/solenoid wire, My '91's schematic shows a B/Y wire going to the solenoid. Does #13 in the link above show the 90 deg. hose? It may connect the TB with the piping on the firewall. Hi, nice job cleaning that shiny block.

The bracket that the spring attaches to is probably your issue. It goes on the back of the tensioner only one correct way. The tensioner has a hole in the back of it that is just the right size for the tensioner bracket's bent portion to fit into. If it's not in the small hole on the back of the tensioner and just back there in the recessed part of the tensioner bearing, the tensioner will never tighten the belt up correctly. It may also sound strange as well. Very nice build thread by the way.

Well this is a TBI engine so it shouldn't be a problem with the injector or every cylinder would be full... Where does the fuel pressure regulator get it's vacuum? If it gets it from the 1st cylinder intake runner I would check and see if the regulator has gone bad and fuel is being forced into the vac line. Of course this is from dealing with a Ford 2.3 engine and may not apply here. Also check and see if the carbon canister is full of fuel. |

Are the fuel lines hooked up properly? One is fuel in, the other fuel return. Just a thought. Everything looks great man. Nice looking work |
