Default car wont pull...

if you keep the psi at 60 get ready to buy a new fuel pump and injectors.....cant believe nobody told you to turn it down to STOCK.
most likely is your ignitor, try swapping it

well, the symptoms that you have are not of a bad injector.
cant you swap the ignitor out of one of your friends or some. to see if thats it?

If it's a bad injector, the plug on that cylinder should be a very different color than the rest. Probably the ignitor or coil though.

Default Re: car wont pull... (92boostn'hatch)

sorry been busy at work, but no the engine wont pull still thinking it might be the ECU. cause the car will run prime when its not warmed up. like if i let it sit for 5 mins then take it out and dont let it warm up to running temp. it runs good. but then it seems like once sumthing warms up thats where my problems come from. ignitor and coil appeared to be good. i could be wrong is there a test to do on them that i could try? i also tried replacing the O2 sensor and it still runs like ****
