[QUOTE="T34r1tUp, post: 1870072, member: 14269"] im a certified tech and i have a shop in sw okc. i do alot of electrical work and i have swapped fuel injected motors into older cars.i usually just swap in a motor with computer and harness from another car so my experience is limited with the aftermarket systems. you didnt give much info on your setup tho. is it Throttle body injection (TBI) or is it one injector per cylinder. most of the early fuel injection systems were tbi and they were pretty simple. if your car is running rich when warm it could be a bad coolant temp sensor or bad map sensor. by running hot do you mean hotter that normal or is it actually overheating. you didnt mention if its got electric radiator fan some are switch on by the coolant temp sensor so that could link your two problems together.
