You too? I built a frame to mount one to an old swivel base several years ago....

Hmm.. All is well now this morning at 6:02 am CDT. I didn't change a thing.

8:12pm CDT and still doing it for me.

Anyone else having issue getting to the first/main page of the forum?

I keep getting a pop-up window asking what program to use to open the file.

I managed to get here through a link I had previously saved.

Great pics Zam! Was that purple panel wagon a Jeep? The flat front fenders make me think so.

Loved that old black chevy(48-54 I think) too.

This was referenced at some parts site the guy was looking at. I had w/Robust and w/o Robust....

It would be like w/AC or w/o AC.

Pretty weird. I had never heard of such a thing.

Anyone???

All,

I saw a post on another forum asking which fuel pump to get for a 2002 Astro, one with or without a "Robust Fuel System".

What in the world is a "Robust Fuel System"?

You would be a...Zombie!!!!

MY guess is some kind of either a power plant or an ethanol plant, just my $.02 from looking at the pictures.

Amazing pics indeed Zam. I broke down a bought a new camera recently too, Nikon D40. I'll have to get some pics posted up soon.

Pump is fine with that pressure. Sounds like there is a short between the relay and the pump if you can swap relay and it still doesn't work...

Gary - Again what RPM are we talking about for this high idle? And how long does it last? All of the TBI equipped vehicles I have owned idled high at startup when operating in open loop mode. Once they warmed up past a certain temp, the idle would come down. I think you may be chasing a problem that...

Thoughts and prayers to the Kalitta family and their fans. I watched some of the TV coverage from the NHRA yesterday. One of the drivers was VERY critical of the track conditions, safety wise, in NJ. I wonder why NHRA and the track owners have been so slow to react to changes in their sport? NASCAR ...

Gary,

Define "high" for me. What RPM are we talking about here? If you just guessing it's high, get a tach on there so we have an idea.

I seem recall my 91 p/u having what I thought sounded like a high idle. But watching the tach, not so much.

My 89 9C1 does the same thing.
