Cadillac Repair: 1976 Cadiliac Seville, throttle position sensor, electric fuel pump


Question
VIN 6s69r60487807 Problem with car is it will crank up and run for a few minutes then die out like starving for fuel. Put fuel presure gauge,spark tester and noid light on injector harness.It apears to be losing the injector circuit.I need information onhow to adjust new throttle position sensor and any infomation onthe map sensor built into the engine computer.

Answer
If the map sensor vacuum line comes loose, develops a crack or disconnects from the computer when the engine is running it causes a permanent failure in the computer and the computer must be replaced.

Look at the distributor shaft and tell me if there is a small square cover on it ?.

Is your fuel pressure remaining steady as if memory serves there is an electric fuel pump under the car along the frame rail and a LIFT PUMP in the fuel tank.
