I haven't checked my fuel pump, how do you check it?? If it does need to be replaced, should i replace it with a stock fuel pump or an aftermarket one? what would be the difference?? My car still has the stock injectors, if i want to replace them what should i replace them with? I was told i can use injectors from an se but then i was told that they wont work with the 88 turbo 2, the reason i ask is i just installed a feul ratio gauge and boost gauge today and my car is hitting 10-12 pounds of boost and i want to make sure my engine is getting enough fuel.... Last thing i want to do is blow my engine..... Thanks all for the input and advice.....

The ground at the back of the engine is not the primary ground... the negative battery cable goes to the chassis then to the long bolt on the starter. Check those grounds especially, as they are what really matters.

Okay I grounded the negative battery terminal on my battery to the struat tower where the bolt holds on the fuse holder on the driver side with 6 gauge wire, i grounded the engine to the firewall with 4 gauge wire and i grounded the computer under the floor board on the pass side by removing one bolt that held the cpu down i put a 6 gauge wire and put the nut back then i put the other end under the rug on the bolt that holds the passanger seat down. I hope that they are suffient grounds. BUT the car still bucks not as bad as before, now it feels like the fuel is cutting out really bad i will be accelerating and my head gets jerked forward towards the steering wheel. One good thing is my passanger window goes up much faster now .....Can anyone please tell me what i can do next to trouble shoot what is causing this problem?? Thanks agin all for the help.. Vinny
