Thread: Fuel injection

Tweet

89 Ford 150 pick-up. has fuiel injection not sure what size engine but not bigblock. He wants to change to carb. Other than intake and distributor what needs changing. Can the computor be eliminated??? Its just used to plow snow in his own drive.

Charlie- Doing that is not for the normal computer engine.You got all that crap that runs off the computer that it would be a pain to convert unless you start all over. Why would he like to get rid of the injection anyway?

He uses the truck for one thing plowing snow in his driveway not out on the road. So 362 days a year it sits and varnishes up. To get it to run it takes him a day or to.

a carb sitting that long is going to be just as much of a problem... tell him to put fuel stabilizer in there when its not being run and run it for a minute after the stabilizer has been put in.... it'll help protect the fuel lines.... also part of the problem can be related to fuel sitting for 362 days will make it go bad or at least lose a lot of potency... the stabilizer will help with that as well
