Started Fuel Injection Conversion

[kids88yj]

I finally tracked down all the parts I needed to go fuel injection except a offset air cleaner stud. Ive got the sensors, adapter plate and tbi on. The fuel pump and lines removed. Wiring is done except for the new fuel pump, check engine light, and power wire for ecm. Hoping to get the new fuel pump, filter and new lines done tonight. Ive got about $500 total in this verses $1100 + for a kit. Finding room for a ecm on a yj is a b****! Finally got it in though. Hoping to have it all done this weekend and track down any bugs in the system before the TSJ Spring ride.

Sounds interesting! Post pics of your progress as you have time and can get photos! Good information that I'm sure will be of interest to Jeep owners!

Where did you get your adapter plate at? I've got an SB chevy motor and all the stuff to convert except for an TBI adapter plate.

It runs!!

I have a problem starting though runs real rich. Have to put it in flood mode (pedal to the floor) to start. Ive un hooked return line and it didnt help. New O2, map, and coolent sensors. Swaped ecms out and chips. If I had any hair id pull it out!! :mad:

Ill post a list and prices when I get it all lined.

Andy as long as you are running an open rear diff and breaking front ends on your jeep and 4 wheeler, Ill be ready before you.:p

Jason, I used a GM 4.3 tbi set up like howell and a bunch of others. I thought it would be easier and parts can be found from JY, autozone, ebay, and the truck in your drive way.:D
Hows your stroke job coming along?

S.........L............O..............W, I won't have the engine back for 2 more weeks. Which I guess is okay, I what to do several mods and finish up a few loose ends from the original swap before I put it back together.
