i got everything together and the car does run, but it has some serious problems. the idle is a lil shaky and the car smokes. there is gas/water spitting out of the exhaust. (oil and coolent are clean and stay at proper level, so i dont think its a headgasket issue) when the car was running if i pulled spark plug wire #1 or 4 its ran the sam, but if i pulled 2 or 3 it shut off. with some timing adjustments i got it to run solidly on 2, 3, and 4. but when i still pull plug #1 the motor runs the same. i checkd the spark and its sparking good. i am hoping its just a timing issue. i got the crank set to tdb (single white mark) and i set the head to tdc with the stock z6 cam gear (timing marks lined up). i threw on the megan adjustable cam gear. i got the motor to run best with the cam ger advanced all the way and the distributor all the way twords the firewall. i cant get a good view on the crank pully with the timing light, plus i really dont know how to use the light so thats out. with everything advanced the car idles 96% correctly, but i dthink i still have a slight misfire on cylender #1. i have had this issure before i installed the msd setup. i was having coil problems so i threw on the msd i had sitting around. i was told i should get a fuel pressure regulator and turn down the pressure. i had an ebay fpr so i went to throw it on but i had to buy an adapter so i can hook it to my fuel rail.

any help would be appreciated. you can im me on aim SQ is the SQUAD or you can email me voweeks@comcast.net if your in the boston area feel more then welcome to come by and help

my digi cam **** the bed, so no pics for now

 

got the car running and decided to pull the plug of injector #1, and the car ran the same, so i know for a fact that it has something to do with injector #1. i know its got air, fuel and spark.

first thing today i put back the pm6 and the a6 distributor. the car ran the same. after i undid that i swapped the injector 1 and 2 around and 1 was still miss firing. i changed the resistor box and it was still the same. then i got another injector clip, ran wires straight to the resistor box and ecu, it was still the same.

i removed the #1 spark plug and cranked the motor, a lot of air was blowing out the hole at a really high rate so i think i got decent compression. i think i may possable have a bent valve, just dont know how to really check for that. is it possable i just need a valve adjustment? please give me some ideas on things to check

 

I dont think you have it in time correctly you need to set the crank a tdc single little white mark on crank pulley then you need to take that adj cam gear and set it to stock how it cam in the box then put the clylinder head in time and adjust the cam gear later on a dyno while you are getting it tuned.

Its going to to run like **** and not make the right power until you get it tuned the proper way

 

did a compression test todat and #1 was 0, #2 was 190, and 3 & 4 where 220

so i am going to assume its a valve problem going to pull the head

 

ok, i guess i have a problem with #1, iam goin to change all the valves with one from another hea and send it out to get cleaned, decked and sealsw/ 3 angle valve job. but should i be worries about #2 only being at 190 while 3 and 4 are at 220?

 

Hey If you could get some pics up that be sweet... I looking to do a boosted Mini Me... Any info on how much boost your running would be sweet!!!!

 

i finally had time today to get the timing set up with the new head on. started up pretty good, idles good. but when i hooked up the radiator and filled the cooling system all hell broke loose. i guess the head gasket dident seal good or is on wrong. at first i had a leaky valve cover gasket (used). when i filled the water i could see the water mixing with the oil comming through the valve cover gasket. ill have to pull the head AGAIN and this time i am going to get a cometic head gasket. i also compression thested the motor and got 210 accross the board
