LOL......something is wrong either timming or you have a BIG ASS BOOST LEAK SON lol...shouldnt be reving that slow.....or that or im used to the 1 sec drop from 4grand LOL.....nice to see man great......i just got my shit tuned...so awesome....lol...pulls like crazy now...i have to post new vids and pics

[Tdurr]

timing is prob off(i set it by eye lol) and i have a boost leak.
sounds good tho. oh and i like this video cuz ppl will think its slower then it really is...so i can make that money!

[Tdurr]

So car is acting funny.

Was playing with a 240 on the hwy, and after getting done we go our separate ways then suddenly car runs pig ass rich to the point it would try and die and didnt wanna idle so i pull into a gas station and turn the car off. I start it back up and its running lean as fuck, so i turn the fuel pressure up and the fuel up on the safc and it seems to be running okay.. im so confused... any ideas? Havent had a real chance to look at it yet.

[89T]

it kinda sounds like the plugs fouled or a fuel pressure problem.
hard to say without being there.

[Tdurr]

yea it was weird, i thought an injector stuck open cuz my friend was behind me and he said he could smell fuel on the way to the gas station, but once i turned it off i dono... maybe a new fuel pump is needed?

[89T]

hmm. did it sound like a suby?
If you foul a plug the cylinder wont fire so it pushes out raw fuel.
fuel pump could be a possibility also but it's hard to say.
what kind of fpr do you have?

[Tdurr]

um.. it just sounded rich like it does on start up when the main relay went bad. Cuz i hit the fuel kill and it reved up and idled normal for a few seconds before it died.

and i have a B+M fpr, no gauge tho (yea i need to get one)

[Rendon LX-i]

ummm yeah a foul plug well do it. Safc depends on its o2 sensor how do i know that cause i was dealing with it last week....runing rich as fuck and my plugs fouled bad. and had to replace em. after that no more cel and running bogging.so i would do that tim. let know....(BTW im alittle tipsy so dont mind)

[Tdurr]

ill check the plugs then...

[86ccord]

sounds sick as shit.. just out of curiosity i wanna run you in the si..

[89T]

ill check the plugs then...

check the plugs for sure, when i ran the safc, my car would sound like a suby when it was time to change the plugs..
If i remember right i changed plugs every 2 weeks or so. course it was a dd then.

[MessyHonda]

yeah checked out the vid...my a20 would rev just as fast but i had the integera gears

lol so i pulled the plugs and holy shit, they were black as f*ck . im sure that was 95% of my prob. ill have to get a new tune cuz of the bumped up fuel pressure and me playing with the safc.

while your at the parts store grab a oil filter and oil. LOL!
don't bother with the expensive plugs, it will be a waste of money.
ngk BPR6ES-11 (1 step colder) or BPR7ES-11 (2 steps colder.)
champian RN9YC (1 step colder) or RN7YC (2 steps colder)

[Tdurr]

yup i did. lol and bpr7es(not the-11, is there a diffrence?)

[89T]

the -11 represents the gap.

so you are good.

[MessyHonda]

yeah retune that...you dont want to blow up your engine

[89T]

Tim how's it running? Did the oil smell like fuel?
I'd say you are running rich at part throttle and/or during normal driving.
Did you get a wideband yet?

[Tdurr]

oil didnt smell like fuel. smelled like dirty ass oil(a smell i know oh too well) and yea i assumed part throttle is wayy to rich. I plan on bumping the timing up some and prob turning the fuel pressure down then going from there.

I havent gotten a wideband yet. Im gonna try and trade my rims for one( i have 12 of them lol)

[Tdurr]

well i found out my clutch switch doesnt work so i got the idea to hook the 2step up to my horn button. Good plan/ bad plan?

[Rendon LX-i]

LOL....just give it up LOL....no i cant really help you on that area bro but i can say ask some one that knows how hooks up..call summit. that what i did when i didnt know what the wire was for.
