OK, that sounds good. I figured the spraying sound was normal, but the clicking i was unsure..given that I've never owned a vehicle with TBI before so this is all new to me haha. I got some BG44k from work to run in the tank. I drove it last night and it seems to just hesitate to get up to speed, but then again it hasn't been driven in a while so I need to drive it to help cycle that injector cleaner

Come on buddy post up the solution. Maybe in the future someone else with the same problem could use this as reference.

well that's why i quoted shamrock. The problem was that the electronic advance was not disconnected when I originally did the timing...boy do I feel dumb haha. Once I disconnected it, loosened the distributor, got the timing light and reset the timing back to where i wanted it. After that I turned off the truck, reconnected the wire and fired it up..sure enough it runs beautiful now!

Ahh dont feel bad, I did the exact same thing with my 92 Iroc. Glad you got her fixed!

The hissing sound ... starving for fuel. Get the coolant temp sensor out of the ..equation.
Beside thermostat housing.. clean the grounds in that are also.
