    Switching from Volvo TBI to Carb on a 1996 5.7 GI

    Just a few more questions. Here is a pressure regulator with attached gauge to get the fuel pressure dialed in. Speedway Fuel Pressure Regulator 5-12 psi & Gauge 0-15 psi I can attach it directly to the Volvo low pressure pump and filter housing to make a clean installation. Should I use a hard...

    That would be great! Should I put a regulator on it or use it as is? That will help keep everything looking stock using the low pressure pump and filter setup. Thanks for the info

    Switching from Volvo TBI to Carb on a 1996 5.7 GI

    I have been doing a lot of research on this project. I ordered a good used 5.7 GL wiring harness. It has the relay for the single fuel pump. Can I use the stock intake Chevy manifold (PN 14096242)? I have read that there is a plate adapter for the TBI and a Edelbrock 1409 will be a direct fit...

    Here are a couple of pictures of the STBD side ecm plug. I ended up putting heat shrink on all the bare wires. The wires seem brittle. I don’t trust it to be reliable. If I could find a used replacement plug I could splice it in. I can find a 5.7 GL wiring harness. Would that work if I...

    Switching from Volvo TBI to Carb on a 1996 5.7 GI

    The TBI was just rebuilt. Both pumps are working. I have a strong feeling the VST has problems. So everything is new except the VST. Not sure if I can work on it. Thanks

    30 psi. I’m only getting 6-8 on the high side With the bad wiring harness it’s going to be hard to troubleshoot.

    Switching from Volvo TBI to Carb on a 1996 5.7 GI

    I have recently bought a 1996 2460 pursuit with a Volvo penta 5.7 GI with TBI. The engine only has 80 hours on a rebuild. The problem that I am having is low fuel pressure and the wiring harness is bad. I have replaced the tank fuel tube, check valve, fuel line, both fuel filters, both fuel...
