Moodybluesr Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Don't want to be insulting here, but any chance you put it in backwards? I've done dumber things than that myself before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daeron Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 did you replace the 20 year old hoses, or is it possible that you now have a major fuel leak that you didnt notice? hoses can crack sometimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starkiller Posted October 19, 2006 Author Share Posted October 19, 2006 see, that's the other strange thing, it runs great, good acceleration, excellent mpg at 30, starts fine cold...just not warm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fuel filter is a red herring maybe and you need to check out your coolant temp sensor? And reset your ECU. I know my car started out having some problems with the extra fuel that was coming through the new filter until it learned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beataru Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Yeah definately reset your comp.... Pull the plug on the bat for like 10-20 mins and then start it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
