How does the TBI fuel injection system work?
How does the TBI fuel injection system work?
Your TBI fuel injection system fueling is “triggered” from the ignition system. It is assumed that the coil is operational, a 12 volt ignition 1 (IGN1) source is connected to the positive terminal of the coil for external coil applications or to the positive slot for coil in cap applications. Remove plug wire and check for spark while cranking.
What is the TBI code on a 1990 Chevy truck?
Consult a service manual or see below for any check engine light code definitions. You can use a late 80’s or early 90’s GM TBI definition. If you have access to a scan tool use a hook up for a 1990 350 cu. in. 5.7L Chevrolet truck. For some scan tools enter VIN 10th“L” 3rd“C” 8th“K”.

Brake Switch The PURPLE wire on the 700R4 transmission plug must be connected to the Brake Switch in your vehicle for proper Torque Converter Lockup operation.
What should fuel pressure be on a TBI fuel injection system?
Fuel Pressure is critical to the operation of a fuel injection system. Always check to insure that you have the proper fuel pressure. Fuel pressure should be a constant 10 – 15 PSI on a TBI fuel injection system and is typically around 12 – 13 psi. Higher pressure than 15 psi indicates that there is an issue with the installation.
