My car had some old gas in it. Went down to a quater tank and wouldnt start anymore. I added some lucas Cleaner and fillled it up to 3/4 gas with 93. Then still no start. I disconnected the fuel IN line and filled a 2 gal gas contained 3 times to rid of any gas in lines. I replaced it and at the same time took the Piggy Back Procharger fuel pump out.

I have:
ATI Procharger (I just upgraded to a 12PSI setup)
HELIX TEST Pipes, NGK Iridium 1 step colder plugs, 155 Fuel pump,RC440 injectors


I pulled the plugs and they were drenched. I cleaned them all up and then replaced them and the car started right up. It boggs down when I get on it. Also since replacing the fans with some slim ones it was at H temp for a while ( I have to check and see if both fans are turning on). Also at Idle 900RPM I have only 10-15 psi of OIL Pressure.

Any help? I have a greddy emanage I have to hook up. Should I get 2step colder plugs now that boost is 12PSI?

 

Get a tune.

 

should I change the plugs to 2 step colder?

 

Its going to.....

 

No.

 

Just so you are aware, my motor showed this twice just prior to BOOM!!

Have the car towed to a shop right away. I know it will be expensive, but so are motors. Better safe than sorry IMO.

 

Ive been driving it its a little rich
what did it show twice?

 

10-15psi oil pressure at idle

 

Then BOOOOOOOOM!!!!!

 

is this caused from not tuning properly?

 

Probabaly I have an emanage ultimate on the way. Anyone know where I can find a base scharged map.

 

Can you not afford to take it to a tuner? Your not sounding too smart about this..... Do it right/safely....

 

I actually build cars for a living. Id rather do as much as I can and learn and know the program then bring it to a tuner. This will also save money, I dont relaly have much now I dropped another 5k into this car this summer alone - with me doing all the work and paint and 1 off fenders.

Plan on taking to a tuner after I do as much as I can.

 

The low oil pressure would not be caused by a bad tune. If things aren't making sense then I think you are at the point where you have done as much as you can (Tune $300 < $5000 Blown Motor)

 

Go ahead then... Save 400-500.. Good you "build cars for a living", NOT tune cars, huge difference.. But I told you SO...

 

I figure Ill at least hook it up and throw a base map on it and take it to be tuned after.

 

since you have a procharger i was wondering, is this kit pretty reliable?

im kinda confused so is procharger a turbo? So it would be legal in cali

dont mean to jack your thread

 

It is a supercharger. I do know the Vortech Supercharger is legal in Cali. not sure about the Procharger but there is much better avaliablity if you are looking for a Vortech.
