I'm going to go over my FI system. I took everything out of the car tonight. I'll install Solex H40 carbs in the meantime. What a vast difference the engine bay looks after the FI is gone. This is the before pic.

First, I'm sending the injectors to be tested/cleaned. I found about a pound of dirt and rust in the tank. Then I'll test the fuel pump or get a new one. Look at the trigger points, get all new FI hose/lines... All of the components seemed to test OK while in the car like the MPS, CSV, TPS, pressure regulator but I was running very lean. I think not enough fuel was getting into the engine through some fault of the FI system.
