Okay, so I've done a bunch of mods to my 88T2 and now it starts, fires and dies. I have a rtek chip in my ecu, new injectors, throttle body mod, fmic, bigger turbo, removed all emissions and relocated my battery. Now my problem is, I've done all this work at once and don't know what's at fault. I have alot of fuel because the exhaust just bellows a huge cloud and in the exhaust is raw fuel. Also my TPS when unplugged from the harness reads properly 1Kohm at C/T and 5kohm WOT now when I plug it in it reads 600ohm at WOT. I was really looking forward to it running. If I put too much premix oil in would it not run? Do I need to jump anything since removing emissions? I really need some help.

Check your AFM or any major leaks in the intake.

I just reinstalled the diffusers under the primary injectors, without them there was a huge vacuum leak. I'll look for some testing procedures for the AFM. Thanks. This really drives me nuts because it drove in a year ago.

So, I'm finding that my spark plugs are extremely soaked with fuel, but there is spark when I turn over the engine with a plug in the wire. Should I use a hotter plug? How about advancing timing? I can't find any AFM tests. Thanks for any input.

I can't find any AFM test procedures, but with the key on I push the flap in the AFM and I can hear the injectors squirting. Fuel pressure holds when I shut off the ignition so they're not leaking. It seems like there is too much fuel and not enough air. Is there anything in the emissions wiring that the ECU needs to see before it'll run?
