:tisk: Hey all, thanks for reading. I was driving my 97 d21 the past few days and it seemed like a growing vacuum problem. When releasing clutch from stop or low engine speed (under 2k rpm) I have to goose gas to raise rpms. If i ease onto the gas engine bogs down and stalls. Same thing happens when shifting to second or third between (1800-2100rpm). No change due to temp or time running. (Idled fine)

Today the problem escalated. Unable to start after running fine. Id disconnected terminals to reset computer today. found one of clips coming from battery + contained a disconnected wire in harness which i reattached to the clip.

Im going try and replace these wires coming from battery + and refit into clips. Anyone know of related connections issues that may cause running/ starting problems

Just an update, i mustve knocked a connection loose, after reconnecting that wire i can start the truck which will idle for a 45 seconds before it bogs out.

im trying to narrow the problem. I can only remove/disconnect two of the injectors, and they seem to function fine.

Truck starts, idles at 1.5k for a for 2 seconds, drops down to 1k and gets rough and bogs out.

reconnected wires in black (lower) clip immediately on positive terminal and resistance is 1.3ohms is this not good enough?
What do i do? Where should i look to?
