    What faults does a "stomp test" show?

        Did you change to the larger air flow meter also?
        Upping the injectors by 5 pounds without any other "tuning" would likely result in the thing running pig rich and pissing the computer off.
        It could also be a vacuum leak if the o rings did not seat properly.
