Another gremlin...this time misfiring
Here is my setup
greddy kit
DSM 450
AFC Hack
I set my AFC setting according to the AFC Hack thread
I followed the wiring diagram off of here as well for the DSM 450's
I finally fixed my oil leak and now I am having another problem
car idles around 450 or so. When I give it gas it will sputter here and there all the way to 5.5K where it will not rev anymore. Then when I am letting off of it, it feels like its about to stall but will stay on (nuetral gear). Anyway I checked the codes and I got 71, 72, 73, 74. Cylinder misfires. What would cause that? I am clueless to this stuff. This is my first tiem installing a turbo and injecot4rs and what not. Should start with the spark plugs and wires??

Also, I dont think it is the injectors as they were cleaned and flow tested before I got em AND I installed them in April and they just started doing this NUT I havent taken the car off jackstands since April. (well except once but it was towed) When I originally installed the injecotrs and AFC, they workled perfectly (too perfectly as I had a massive fuel leak too). However, to rule out the possibility, how do I check to see if the the injectors are the cause or not.
And here are my AFC settings
lo-98%
hi-99%
1-4 -40%
4.5 -37%
5 -33%
5.5-7 -30%

Oklay after searching a bit, I went out and checked my wires for looseness and for ***** and giggles checked the spark plugs. Cylinder 1 had a bunch of oil in it but the other 3 didnt. I am going to take the valve cover off and clean that spark plug and see what happens. But if only one had oil in it...why would I get a misifre in all 4 cylinders
I'm not exactly sure how the ECU determines what cylinder has misfired. But when one of my injectors was stuck open causing misfire in that cylinder, the ECU showed 2 cylinders were misfiring.
Oil on the spark plug isn't good.
You could get dumping in too much fuel causing the misfires, that would be my guess.

hmmmmm........I will try leaning it out somemore with the AFC???
Also I am going tot ry the valve cover kit replcement. See what happens. I saw alot fo threads where that is all it was. If that doesnt work. Spark plugs and wires will be next. if that doesnt work. I will ge the injecotrs cleaned/repaired. Unless someone wants to buy ti all so I can get a B18B

Your just wasting money doing that. Find the problem and fix it.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
