Just finished installing my turbo kit. I have been driving it around all day and it has been boosting very well. however after i left Shell's seafood tonight, the car wouldn't start as if my afc wasn't even on. I usually have problems starting the car because its so rich. my settings are -40 across the board, and my throttle points are 98,99. I also have the in and out settings at 6,6. it feels like its bogging and its just dumping fuel. it went from running great to ****. am i missing a setting on my safc or what?

EDIT: Possibly motor is blown. i checked the spark plug in cylinder 4 and its smashed. something must of hit it. cylinder 4 is dead.

Possibly bad injectors? Sounds like your hack settings are okay.

 

i was thinking the same thing, but the car ran fine about 4 hours ago, its just dumping fuel. i mean i burnt a lotta gas on the way back. is it supposed to be hard to start the car with the hack?

 

No, I have run the hack for almost a year now and it's started right up every time. What injectors do you have, and are they new or used?

 

used 450cc dsm's, im running very rich with them though. too rich.

 

not the hack guys motor is blown.

what do you mean smashed?

 

i mean the spark plug is melted ill try to upload some pics a lil. later.

no compression at all in the 4th cylinder. the compression test showed 185, 195, 180, 10. the plug looks more melted. but the car seems fine, but when i take out the spark plug wire in cylinder 4, the car runs the same. maybe burnt valves? has anyone ever seen this before? cause if its that, then i'll just drop in some new valves and a headgasket and im good to
