Yeah, but I let simpler things get to me, I blew a header gasket in the Buick a while back, the car sat for 2 months, killed the battery, then I finally figured I had to at least fix it if I wanted to sell it Of course once it's running, I would never dream of getting rid of it.

Don't let it get to you and just keep trucking. Eventually it will all pay off.

this should make you feel better. me and my friend have been working working some evenings and 12 hrs every monday for like 6 months getting this damn mustang together. got it together and it was hanging on the streets with 12sec cars haven't got it to the track yet. well after a few heat cycles the lower intake worked itself loose and let some extra air in causing the car to go lean and blow a head gasket. so it's almost back together again this time i fuckin attacked it with everything i had and with the help of two friends we got 98% of the job done in one day!

So did you check to make sure that the #5 injector is working...I.E....scope, pulling the rail off and leave the injectors intact and crank it, or swap injectors out of another cylinder?
