Hot start issues
#11
I'm glad you've made great progress with your FB13BT.
I'll get out there one of these days. Sunday is no good, I'll be watching the scooters go around the racetrack.
It'll be my turn to ask for help before long if all goes well. I'm going to build another TII if I get it. I'm gonna have to get myself an engine hoist.
Cheers

When I put it back in after the rebuild I did it myself. Just threw the strap over my back and muskled it in. No need for a hoist. Unless you're girly...
Update I'm at 650 miles and it got it's oil change and new plugs runns great. Just still a little hot start issue.. Gettign better though. On an off note; where should I hook up the boost reference port on the mallory FPR? It's on the intake manifold right now. Question is that if the turbo is building boost at say 3000 rpm cruise then how would the FPR know that there is boost on the carb side of the throttle plates if the FPR is seeing vaccume from the manifold. How would it know to increase fuel pressure to the carb and cruise no matter how big of a pump you have. I ask because I was kinda mad and just hooked up the charge pipe and it went brickwall lean when I was at part throttle, but if I just stomped on it, it would haul *** down the road at 5psi and the fuel pump was keeping up fine nice and rich. Oh and its scarry fast, but I can't drive it over 3k at any type of part throttle or it goes off the map lean and surges, but there is vaccume in the manifold. Do I just need to shut the fawk up eat more cheeseand buy a bigger fuel pump, or what? Again its currently a Holley Blue 14psi@110gph as opposed to the GSL-SE which does 50 psi @ 27gph.

It would only run if it was really really rich, like 10:1 rich. LOL!! As time goes by it's been running more and more stoic. I'm 100% sure it's just break in since I reused the stock seals.
I got brand new apex seal springs, FD cornerseal springs, solid cornerseals. Every seal and spring was brand new, except for the apex seals and bearings. Ran out of money. I did a really small port on the intake and left the exhaust stock. All the side seals were clearanced to .025" (big debate on weather .02 or.03 was best. I went with inbetween)
Heff on Sunday if you want to swing by I should be home most of the day. Give me a call.

I hope thats a typo, side seals at .025 is wrong, side seals should be at .002-.004... That would be a major starting issue.......
