OK, Now that I have the engine starting and running. I believe it is running way too rich. Here's why.



Tonight I attempted to start my car up and it was sounding like it was flooding. I feathered the gas and got it going. Sounded good other than the really high idle i got going on. I tried to pull it out of the drive and I stalled it. After I tried to get it started again, to pull back into the drive, it blew a HUGE fireball out of the exhaust side of the turbo.



What should I do? Is it running rich? Did I **** something up? Is this TPS? CAS?



Thanks

Mike

Lucky bastard...your jspec started and runs better then mine!!!



Anyways...the Jspecs typically have bad injectors from sitting..I'd check though out too...along w/ the timing.

How did you get yours to start? Did you have to bump it or anything like that? Any problems at all? Where did you get your motor?

I got mine at some place in Hawthorne called Nippon Motors. They had a wide range of different motors from skyline motors to Toyota. They had a full 20B front clip for sale which my dad was interested in. Unfortunately it was automatic.
