I'd like to announce that I have added another 2g to my family, I'm now the proud father of 2 black 2g dsms, one 97 and one 99. Anyway. The 97 I just bought is a turd and I over paid for it, but I couldn't live without it. When it was dropped off it seemed to be running considerably worse then when I test drove it. It has a rough idle that shakes the entire car and it sounded like a misfire. The first thing I did was a boost leak test and found leaks everywhere, bov, t fittings, ic piping, and injector seals. The car was throwing an egr code when I got it and I took apart the all of that when I put my prothane motor mounts in, when I put everything back together the car read no code. It continued running poorly with no codes, then I replaced the injector seals and fixed all the boost leaks and it still ran like crap. Then finally after a few days it threw the misfire code I knew it should have been throwing a while before that... any ideas on the problem? The car does have a walbro 255 fuel pump and 550cc injectors, and a stock fpr. I just replaced plugs and wires and they are all firing.
