[QUOTE="MR.T., post: 3891291, member: 4793"] Carb all the way with me. I have an older EFI vehicle & twice in 2 years it has died because of some computer issue. Believe it is the auto shut down feature which kills all spark & fuel when yhe engine is shut off. Problem is, there is no way to bypass this & get it running when the computer screws up in this way. I had the computer rebuilt a year ago when this happened, & if the problem is the computer again this time- I have all the necessary parts to replace all the computerised crap & put a carburetor on it. Then I know it will run, & will probably run better. So going backwards in technology sometimes works to an advantage cause then you only need 3 (maybe 4) things to get your engine to run; fuel, spark, compression, & get it rotating. EFI you need 20 things working together to get & keep it running. [/QUOTE]
