Ok First I have a CEL coming on, It is a bad injector code, I checked all injectors and they are all within spec being between 2.8 and 3 ohms.
This CEL goes away with the slightest tap of the throttle and returns at idle.
Also sometimes when I have driven the car then shut it off and come back later after going to the store or whatever, it will start then die. It will run and idle fine after I give it some gas and drive it for just a min.
I am wondering if it could be a leaking injector or maybe the TPS?
Next I did a vacuum canister removal and EGR blockoff plate, before this I was hitting 14 lbs boost no problem. Now I am hitting 10 and creeping to 15, not sure why it would change? Yes I did cap all open vacuum ports.
Thanks for any help!
Checked the alternator today, charging at 14 volts at an idle... That should be fine right?
