Temp patched with duct tape

Patched with hvac metal tape- going to get bondo and exhaust tape next- also patch the 90 inside that box, and sand it smooth for best flow

New MAF- fuel pump- fuel filter/line- upgrade exhaust gaskets from Down pipe to cat/cat back- fuel injection service through vacuum line- new plugs/wires- just bought a timing gun to get it in tune tomorrow- Newer rotor/cap- new relays- checking fuel pressure first thing in the morning- not a mechanic by trade, but a carpenter/electrician/ etc.

Still acting like like it’s not getting fuel delivered under torque while ascending or putting the pedal down to hard/ almost like the air in that intake is not flowing properly for a good AFR?

Have been told to do EGR valve- replace 2 injectors to see if it improves- idle sensor beneath throttle body- and many other things as well

I am in northern Washington- I live in southern and have a deadline to get done at work in Oregon by the end of this week- I’m chasing a ghost and out beyond cell service but have WiFi- please message me if you can point me in the right direction-

changed the MAF Unit and rested my intake box closest to manifold on the exhaust- and blew that hole in my intake box closest to manifold- got power back temporarily, but I think that the metal tape has caused a restriction in the air flow (newb brain) to motor—

Me and the dogs at napa

Old filter box- removed metal tape

Bondo!! Whadda ya know

Mid clean up




almost done- applied clear to bondo and gorilla tape- metal tape soon- one last carb cleaning spray- and rolling- update later

 

Heat tape over clear and sanded bondo

Cleaned out inside- reapplied clear coat after cleaning with carb clean

Assembled and about to reset Ecu and 🔥 up

 

Plugged my EGR valve line with bolts- adjusted my timing to normal- whole intake system and fuel system have been replaced/cleaned- trucks never ran this good- close thread- sickkkkk!!!
