~~Well I guess I'll get up off my rear an let my fiance' on the Pc because she is getting fussy.Yea I know I started this forum the other day an I haven't done anything but inside an stay warm.Mom gave me a old space heater today for the garage,an that is what i've been needing now for some time,I wish she'd of said some thing when it was like 15degrees out.
~I guess first thing im gonna start with is removing the old gasket an trying to clean the plenum up an inspect the EGR valve..
~Below is a picture of a hard vacuum line one on each side of the Plenum that runs to the EGR an re-burns exhaust gas. Well the one on the driverside was fully clogged almost.. I have replaced all 6 fuel injectors with old one from my last Z that I bought owned for 5 months-wrecked 3x's an then blew up lol.. The readings on last injectors were all the same the ones im replacing 2 of them didn't have a reading an 2 more was reading a little high
~~~ Lets hope all this fixes the power issue~~~ The red gasket sealant was put on by the previous owner because they had stripped out the bolt holes that is on the plenum so therefor they couldn't get a proper seal.. Well I ran another bolt through it an fixed the problem..

Nice pics, I was wondering where you got your gaskets, and also wondering if you replaced the injector o-rings and if so where you got them?
