Re: F.I. problems when it rains 700 1990

In what kind of shape are the injector ground points? I'm not sure as to their location, though on the turbo cars they're on the intake.

Check all the ground junctions-by each headlight, behind both kick panels, etc. Also, how are the sensor connections?

I bought a tube of Ox-Gard and another of dielectric grease and went through my entire car, cleaning every ground I could find and 'sealing' them with the Ox-Gard. The dielectric grease keeps the sensor boots and their connections trouble free. I cleaned all the sensor junctions first with DeOxIt and then applied the grease to the boots (except the O2 sensor).

Even if you do find a faulty component, the above regimen will go a long way to making your car and its electronic gadgetry more stable.
