1) She Idles at 1500 RPMs2) White To Light Blue Smoke Coming From Tail Pipe.3) Took Her For A Quick Ride, Seems Like Power Loss.4) A Whining Noise Coming From Engine Or Maybe Under Car.

NOW WHAT I DID!

1) Cleaned IAC Valve2) Cleaned EGR Valve3) Cleaned Plenum And Egr Tunnel4) New Battery5) New Spark Plugs6) New ShotGun ( If All Fails) ( The Car Not Me)7) Checked Injector Leaks ( Top Of Engine)8) Painted Plenum red.9) All Injectors Ohmed Good!10) All New Injector Rings.

BEFORE THE PLENUM JOB!1) She ran bad I Knew Her Injectors needed to be replaced!2) She Did NOT Smoke At ALL! (Drove Her A while)

She Sat For 3 Months In My Driveway!

NOW She Smokes from Tail Pipe And Idles High, Plus Loss Off power!

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME!

Nice looking! Did you adjust the IAC valve. If you did, time to check for a vacuum hose leak.

Hopefully you did not remove slack from the throttle cables.

I would suspect a bunged O ring on an injector.

When was the valve cover job done?

Use a Consult to adjust IAC and read the IAC solenoid duty cycle.

Are you sure it has been turned in fully then out 2.5 turns?
