Fouling plugs every couple of days.
I recently had my built turbo ITR tuned with Hondata s200. It seemed to run fine for a couple of days. 3 days after the tune was done, I tried to start the car, and it woudnt start. I pulled the plugs, and found them soaked in fuel. So I replaced them with another set NGK 3330's. The car started right up, and drove fine for a couple of days. Again, a coupleof days later, I tried to start the car, and the same thing. I took the car back to the tuner, and he said all the maps looked OK. Any ideas on what to do?

Re: Fouling plugs every couple of days. (SOHC_MShue)
I dont have a wideband right now. The injectors are RC 750cc saturated. I started the car for the first time in 3 days today. It started for a second and quickly shut off. I tried again and it sounded flooded. I pushed the gas and started one more time. It started up, but dumped alot of fuel for a couple of minutes. Nothing but straight black puffs out of the exhaust. It drove like crap for about 5 more minutes until the car wormed up. It seemed to run okay after that. One thing I know is the car runs really bad until it warms up.

Sounds like a shitty tune to me! Part of the tuners job is to trouble shoot little stuff like this, if he can't figure it out find a different tuner.

Re: (.nate)
it sounds like your start up tables are not setup correctly. When I first started tuning with the AEM EMS a few years ago I had that problem. After I tuned the start up tables the problem went away. just my .02
