Turning the distributor only changes injector timing...... if it's off too much the engine runs like.... well... you know. Gotta be pretty close to run decent.
Took a vid, this issue is tough to describe so I thought it may help. Around the middle of the vid I had it at full throttle but it died out. It usually will stay running at full throttle but not rev up....you can also hear the loud sucking noise, sounds like a massive vacuum leak but I checked and don't see any.
You REALLY need to check fuel pressure.... Is your gas gauge accurate? Might try dumping a few more gallons into it, and see if that improves its attitude any. (of course, if you have to drop the tank, it'll be heavier......)
Okay, so I checked my fuel pressure Monday night, was at 0psi, I had other stuff to do so I left it at that. Checked if I could hear the relay tonight (I could hear it before when it was running bad) and I couldnt, so I jumped the fuel pump relay and now I have 40psi, it still runs the same, any ideas?
I'm wondering if by removing the "engine" fuse in the cab relay box I messed something up, I know it's just a fuse and it makes no sense but it really is the only thing that changed.
