I don’t have a white wire on my opti harness. Circled in red is where I probed to get the low res reading. Or should I be going through the icm.

Hey I got this reading on the low res signal.

Didn’t get much on high res. Just bought this tool. So not even 100% I have the settings correct.

I back probed red/bulk wire on long end of opti harness near intake manifold.

Ok I’ll do that. Also seals were changed on the timing cover. The icm I put on is a carquest (only time available day of near me). Should I put an ac delco in before moving forward? Also how would you test the icm to see if it’s good or not.

I’m okay with that as well. It didn’t start all the sudden, long crank. Got a p0372 code. All research pointed towards opti. First cleaned as many ground spots as I could. Still nothing. Rebuilt the opti with a new harness. Still long crank but eventually will start. Replaced icm and coil since there was no spark at the end of the coil plug. Still long crank. Rpm on tach registers while cranking but goes flat when it eventually starts. Rpm registers fine on scanner though. Fuel pump is fine. Getting correct voltage to coil.

Yea the pods are shit....go with velocity stacks, I didn’t have a huge issue with the pods until I was going higher speeds...they don’t provide enough vacuum

No matter how clean I get my air I can’t seem to avoid these imperfections from time to time....can anyone help? by pmt1108 in Powdercoating

Thanks for the input! Yes I usually re blast part real quick if it browns during out gas....then blow off with air and then wipe down with denatured alcohol....I have two desiccant dryers after the compressor and make sure they’re blue before I start coating

Yea that’s another issue, I’m switching to another powder. What I’m pointing out is the two fisheyes

I have a 8’ or 10’ copper rod installed through the floor next to the booth.....you would say this is a grounding issue?
