stick your finger over spark plug hole1 till you feel pressure and it stops while rotating crank, stop rotating crank

pull the dist cap and make sure rotor points near 1

mark on balancer should be around 1:00 when this occurs.

check 1, 8, 4, 3, 6, 5, 7, 2 fire order

got home changed the map sensor ,no change.looked at the dist cap it was cracked on one side,pulled it off everything looked pretty beat so went and got a new one, no change. located tdc, tried it three times and this is where it lands,if you cant tell it lands on the 1st notch in

im so f'in lost.timing gun procured,im thinking the balancer musta slipped cause at 0 deg this thing will barely start let alone run.even if i turn the distributor till it runs decent the injectors are just pouring gas on the butterflies it backfires then they just become flame throwers.

quiet you!
new information,apparently you have to unplug a brown/black wire first if you mess with the timing,will give it a shot tomorrow if that doesnt help prolly should look into a new iac or tps.dont mind me just thinking out loud here

so sick of this thing,another weekend wasted.went to j&j yesterday pulled a shatload of sensors even got a regulator and injectors.ive replaced all the sensors to no avail,different regulator and injectors ran worse if at all, only things i havnt replaced is 02 sensor which should be fine since it was on 571,distributor and coil pack,knock sensor.i got a tbi gasket kit and replaced everything.and now the battery keeps dying,i took it in last week they tested it and it was fine so i bring the alt in and thats fine too,wtf >:(. ive read it could be ground issues too so i cleaned things up added more grounds went through my wiring to find any loose connections.if this thing isnt running right after sun this shit is getting pulled out and a trusty ford 351 is going in ,fuck this chevy shat

my 1st problem is the directions i followed didnt mention much of the aldl when i weeded the harness so it got cut out(i thought it was from the steering column)which isnt a big deal i left enough wire i could get the plug and wire it back in.
my 2nd problem, even if iwire it back in 99% of the guys ive read experiencing  the same symptoms never get a cel
3rd problem is it literally can be anything, bad fuel pump,clogged filter,map,cts,tps,02 sensor,ecu,vacuum leak,bad wires cap or plugs,bad magnets in the dist,bad injectors or regulator,bad grounds or altenator,iac,
my symptoms,runs fine when cold no stumbles,wot sounds mint,once warm still runs fine at idle,still not sure whether the injectors should be a pulsing spray or constant ,mine are constant.once you put it in gear and hit the gas falls right on its face and may die ,or it may stumble back,backfiring through the tbi doesnt seem to happen much anymore

Did you check the air in the tires?

The feed side pressure should be about 13psi and should not change with rpm or load. The return should be near 0psi.
