    Not for nothing, I hate those early LS return style systems. For anything with an LS swap, using an 04+ returnless rail with a corvette filter is the way to go. Next thing I'd do on it is change the oil. Having the intake and cylinders flooded with fuel definitely contaminated the oil. Also, looking at the o2 sensor signals and fuel trims on a scan tool.

    Nothing like a real head scratcher of multiple issues, always a choice of a part issue leading to an existing issue that was found during diagnostics. The noise you heard is concerning, but you would figure the push rods would have bent before having timing chain issues. The mystery will continue when you have time to dig in a bit deeper with two rich cylinders and a lean code, can't wait to see what you find.

    I’ve had quite a few of those fuel pressure regulators go bad. But never that bad, normally just causes them to run poorly and long crank after sitting hot. Make sure that used one is not leaking as well. I normally drive it, then let it sit a few minutes, then pull that vacuum line off to make sure it isn’t wet with fuel.

  • @mikemaccracken3112
    @mikemaccracken3112 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +34

    Check the voltage on your 02 sensors with your scan tool to see if they are good. Those two injectors could be stuck closed. You can put air to them and pulse them with a power probe with the 5v tip. Position one 02 sensors voltage should not be below 200 mV or > 900 mV. Fuel injectors that exceed the 11-14 ohm range are no good according to GM service manual ID# 844159. Hope this helps.

    The flooded intake certainly has a new and interesting problem, never time to get bored 😉 I personally like the performance and economy of an LS motor but I seriously hate trying to diagnose them. I was looking through the comments and it looks like you got some solid advise to work from Mortske. The Nova is okay but it's nothing special, put the Worn small block and turbo 350 and should be a fun ride. Enjoy yourself at the wedding and be safe on the road. Great video as always 👍✌️🇺🇲

  • @delgrangos1859

    I would definitely take the intake manifold off. I would bet there’s still fuel in there. Also I would monitor your 02 sensors live data and see what they were doing. I would suspect you killed one with all that fuel. You need to clear your fuel trims. Just unplugging the 02s won’t have an immediate result. Easiest way to do that is disconnect the battery for 10 seconds and touch the + and - together. Also something to check is to make sure all your injectors are firing and not hanging open. The pcm controls them by sending a ground. Those cheap swap harnesses are notorious for poor wiring and connectors etc. i have seen an injector ground get shorted to ground and that will hang an injector wide open.

He got it fixed afterwards and we went sliding down a steep hill in the rain on 4 bald tires and blew through a stop sign across the intersection. I told him to pull over and let me get out and I never rode in that car with him again.

    In most efi applications even with drive by wire you can crank them with the throttle wide open and it’ll go into a “flood mode” and shut off the injectors. I don’t believe the throttle body opens though on drive by wire not sure.

    Oooh that Nova is awesome! My cousin (he’s 7 years older than me, and I thought he was just the greatest guy in the world when I was young) had a brown ‘72. He got it in 1991 when I was 13. I didn’t know a whole lot about cars back then. All I knew was that he spent all his spare time (and probably money) working on the car, it was loud and it was a LOT of fun to ride in it. He’s in his early 50s now and has a very successful career as an attorney, and drives an expensive German luxury car. He still talks about that Nova when we get together.

    That Nova is really awesome. If you plan to keep it than full LS swap would be interesting with everything else included with it. Your not the first person to get ripped off with cheap parts. They make also fake spark plugs that last less than 200 miles and than your stranded. Most of them are actually made for lawn tractors not for cars. I bet people wanna see you get burned and electrocuted at the same time LOL. Not a LS expert but if the intake filled with gasoline this fast, maybe the return has started to get clogged or there is some serious pressure issues with the injectors. The gas that did not get burned had to run into the intake from somewhere else than that vacuum port.

    2 cylinders running lean and 2 running fat on bank 2. You sir either have fuel pressure problem or 2 bad injectors. The 2 running fat is the computer trying to richen bank 2 up. It's doesn't control each individual injector only the bank. Odd that there isn't an injector code but sometimes a stuck injector won't set a code. If we are going to parts cannon it I'd swap out the injectors at least the 4 on bank 2. As I have had a stuck open injector set a lean code due to the computer all but shutting off the other injectors to compensate and then obviously it was lean.

    On the Nova, if the metal underneath checks out, and it's not too roached, I might go with the better small block instead of the worn out one and the 700R4. On that plate, brought back memories! My ex father-in-law had a 74 Jag 4 door with the V12, and his Cali personalized plate was "awsom12". His daughter was cute and fun for a while, but I would have rather had that Jaguar, probably would have requires less maintenance and cost me less in the long run. LOL! Take care, Mortske! And stop lighting schtuff on fire! Oh, I blew the plastic intake on a 6.0 to smithereens years ago (like 20) when it got towed to my old shop for a no-start. We tried to run the box van it was in into the shop spraying brake cleaner down the intake. Nope. Just destroyed the intake when it sneezed! Too much fun. That was a LOUD explosion, sounded like a shotgun blast!

    Your first fuel pressure test, unless you have a bad schrader in your guage, it should show pressure and hold it. If it bleeds off, youve got a leak. And since so many cylinders had fuel in them, I'd say your pressure regulator went bad, or the injector driver circuit is sticking the injectors open

      @@CubasAutomotive wouldn't even say that a big factor is the chip shortage and trying to find workarounds to keep parts moving forward. Not to mention that there's not the stock piles of parts like there used to be before COVID so when you are using them as fast as they can be produced there's not a good chance of catching issues during the qc process so anything like machine errors or miscalibrations are getting sent out before they are caught. There's not the delay before shipping there used to be that issues could be caught and the product pulled before it was shipped. Unfortunately I don't see any way to catch up and regain the stock piles quickly as you can only make it so fast without adding new buildings machines and staff witch would mean the price has to go even higher provided that you can find enough good people to even run it all. It's a catch 22 as parts suppliers are like most everything given to the lowest bidder and thus mean that if you are trying to increase your capacity and have to bid higher your not going to be getting the new contract

      @MortskeRepair Hope it turns out OK. About 30 years ago I had the local NAPA (you'll love that) sell me a REBUILT water pump after I REQUESTED AND PAID FOR a new one on my '78 Camaro. At high rpm the shaft broke right where the seal rides (grooved from use). Wadded up the fan and clutch and destroyed the shroud and radiator. They replaced all of the parts that they could supply. I was on the hook for the rest.
      RAN GOOD right after that though!!! It's amazing how much power the fan and water pump take to drive them!

    The lean code is simple… you’ve got two bad injectors on bank 2… hence the reason the plugs were white and showed a no fuel situation the oxygen sensor read a lean code because it’s only running on two cylinders (bank 2)… and added fuel to that bank to increase it too spec.. but because two injectors have failed the remaining two cylinders where overcompensated by the engine control module and over fueled turning the remaining working cylinders plugs to jet black carbon…. It was definitely the regulator… now it’s the injectors because of it! I’m enjoying your videos… stay fat and happy with cold snacks always!

    I've seen stuff like that happen before hell it happened to me. It wasn't on an LS engine but it was a Vortec. Wasn't the pressure regulator either I would guess it was probably in the distributor that tells the injectors to fire same setup but different anyway you can bet that Crankcase is full of fuel I probably wouldn't even have tried to start it without dumping all the oil out of it. To each his own that's what I always say Nobody's Perfect and never going to be perfect. I'm just glad that you got her back running.

    Mass air flow sensor might be the culprit, any fluid can mess them up, had too many problems with them with European cars ( previous owners with them open cool air filters sucking up water) still, as this is gasoline it might evaporate and fix itself 🤞🏼depends if it’s your lucky day. On the other hand if it’s really bad it would have thrown some codes. Take it easy and kick back next couple of days! Thanks for this episode, it hit the spot!

    I was troubleshooting my LS swapped c10 and by tearing into it I damaged a spark plug wire that I didn’t see any outwardly sign of. Developed a misfire and found the culprit by watching the misfire count. I’d start simple and check spark on the bank 2 cylinders then tear into the fuel rail if need be. I’d bet a case of beer those 2 clean spark plugs on bank 2 aren’t firing and the 2 dirty ones are firing. The ecm is dumping more fuel because the bank2 O2 sensor is detecting more oxygen because 2 cylinders aren’t contributing. That’s why those 2 are so rich looking.

    Didn’t Sir Thomas work on a Chevy 6 cylinder back in the old shop?
    Could definitely see that going into the Nova with a PowerGlide-agree it’s not fancy, but it’ll get the wheels rolling for someone who will have fun with it for reasonable money.
    I bet Duff would go for a ride in it! Thanks for the video today; Love The Duff!

    The LS woes, I’m sure it’s an easy fix just haven’t figured it out yet. But, it’ll come. That Nova could be a nice ride as long as it’s doesn’t have a lot of rust! Engine, I don’t know, small block, big block?? What ever it is leave it old school, not an LS! Have a great trip & time off! Thanks for the ride, you’ll figure out the Cowboy!

    For future reference if you hold the throttle to the floor while cranking it goes into clear flood mode and shuts the injectors off until it fires.

    Nova needs a SB that will make it smoke the tires. At least. t359. Those keystones weren’t bad. You could get three cleaned up a few days. And they would still look like poop. Thanks for getting hats. Ordered up today. Reggie’s looking top notch! I’ll admit, little jealous about that one. Look out in Nebraska, one of those girls is bound to try to follow you home. Lol!

    Please remember that a lean bank code doesn’t mean it doesn’t have enough fuel like a carb engine. Lean bank code means that the O2 sensor isn’t seeing enough O2
