After lurking and getting help from old threads for ages, I am now in need of some help myself.
Ok, so a few weeks ago, my 1990 vert died on the way home, and I limped home on just 5 cylinders. Upon arriving at home I found that 1 injector wasn't firing and proceeded to replace them all with refurbished M50 injectors. I also replaced, plugs, wires and distributor.
So two days ago I finally got it all running, and it was running beautifully. The only difference I noticed was that my idle had dropped from 750 typically before to staying at 650-700 or so instead.
Now last night when driving home again, I noticed a few random misfires just before getting home and not a consistent feel to the throttle. This morning I tried to fire up my E30 to get to work, and it refused to start. It would crank, and would catch occasionally, but took almost 20 minutes to fire up, and that was with having my foot on the gas. I was able to drive and it would go, but would occasionally stumble and hesitate. Idling turned to surging, ranging around 500-1000rpm. Stomp test turned up code 1252, so first thing that I checked was the C191 plug, but was still clean of corrosion. I had added diastolic grease when I replaced the injectors to help keep it corrosion free.
Currently pulling my hair out, I would love to be able to drive her again, but don't want to get stranded. Any help at all would be appreciated!
