Unhappy

As you said toddp31 [QUOTE]It seems like when one FD is fixed and running again, then one has to die at the same time. I strongly agree. Anyway,hope yr fd get fixed soon.

My a/f under boost was 11.1 to 11.4 after looking back at the datalogit.

I am going to take it apart today, I pulled it yesterday.



Van if need another harrness I have one, just PM me your address. It seems like it never ends.
Which harness do you have exactly? There's the engine harness that attaches to the computer(that harness seems to be okay for now). Then there's the harness that attaches to the fuel block that goes around the car(fender to fender which is the one I haven't pulled yet) and then there's the one that the starter/alternator/coils are located on(pulled that one apart today...still good). I still have to do the internal harness(the bitch) and have to do part of the ignition crap.

What were your a/f's when you blew it? I know that there's a particular car on Okinawa(not my own) that mysteriously destroys apex seals.



If it's any condolensce to you, my entire wiring harness decided to fuse itself to...itself I've got a serious wiring nightmare going on in my car...but at least the engine's good(for now)
that is worse then the engine taking a dump.

How much ignition advance were you running , what type of porting ?, I found out the HARD way that it doesn't matter if you have perfect a/f ratios when your ignition is too advanced , it going to pop anyway. For me proper ignition is more important than a/f ratio and

It is a very mild streetport(intake tracks cleaned up) and exhaust port to match the sleeve. I'll post the base map and the ignition maps tonight when I get home from work. I believe it was 14-13 with a spilt of 8 while under boost.

yep...I'd rather rebuild an engine than pull the ENTIRE FD wiring harness out.

Go with the SP. It will be plenty to get you where you want to be.
