Hey guys, looking for some advice and direction. Thanks in advance!
I recently finished the rebuild on my car and took it to a tuner shop here in Phoenix. Basically he says there is a mechanical issue with the car and he could only build the base tune for it. It is running super rich, surges at idle. Tuner did not dig into it, and had no real guesses
Here is my basic set up:
1996 cobra forged shortblock
stock heads with imrc's deleted (turned off in base tune)
p1sc 3.40 pulley, intercooled
sct 2600 maf
aeromotive 340 intank pump
60lb siemens inj
bbk 65mm tb
bbk longtubes and xpipe
sct x4 tuner w/ base set-up tune
Heres how i have it set up.
Anderson powerpipe with maf, converted to draw-thru and just behind filter. Stock procharger bov routed back to powerpipe (after maf, before blower). Air intake sensor rerouted to intake tube just before throttle body.
I pulled the plugs and all 8 were jet black, just the same for the o2 sensors. Cleaned the plugs up and closed gap a little to .030. installed 4 new 02 sensors. installed new stock fuel pressure regulator. changed engine oil.
I cannot find an obvious vacuum leak anywhere. I dont know how to "smoke test" for one tho.
i have not started the car after cleaning plugs, new o2 and new regulator for fear of washing out the rings if run too long in this condition.
DTC's pulled from computer are p1132 and p1152 and p1000
I know p1000 is just the engine run cycle as its new. and p1132 and 52 means rich condition from what i read.
Fuel pressure gauge is enroute and will install upon arrival.
Basically the thing is super super rich and i cannot figure it out. Any ideas would be great!!
