Ok so I am picking up a 93 Lude Vtec sr-v for a damn good deal. However the car isnt so much running so hot...or at all.. lol, basically the car will start...idle like complete garbage, if the throttle body cable is pulled it will get a little better...but not much..then sometimes it will just stall out and die. its an h22a1 motor with a skunk 2 intake manifold and throttle bodies, 550 cc injectors, Mr gasket fuel rail m2a4 tranny, and a p 13. To me this has fuel delivery all over it. Ive searched through the faqs and found 201221219u2pu different routes to take, The only issue i have is with all the aftermarket junk on there its hard to follow those pathways.... I want to test everything starting with the less expensive/free, to the new parts/more expensive. Heres what my plan was please please please feel free to correct me if im getting off the right track.

1.Check for Oil Pressure
2. Check to see if im getting fuel to the rail
3. Check fuel pressure
4. Check wiring on injectors, plugs, grounds, fuel pump
5. Check for spark using the "idiot friend test" outlined by jg luder..possible the funniest name e.v.a.h.
6. check current of resistor box-ive heard horror stories of guys redoing everything..turns out its this little biotch
7. Move to throttle body and check out iatv, egr
8. Timing belt redo?


Is there anything else i could do or did I miss anything? Thanks in advanced

 

No check engine lights with all that?

 

yeah i guess i totally should of said that to begin with, there is one, however i wont get the car back until wednesday morning. and usually do cel lights indicate half the problems it could be?

 

Well, it s good place to start. Get the codes it throws and you will know what needs to be looked at first

 

the thing that jumps out at me, are the 550cc injectors and the P13. Is there an adjustable regulator? or at least some sort of piggyback tuning device?

 

yeah there is no adj pressure regulator, yeah i agree the injectors seem like it could possible be drowning the motor out for a stock motor application eh? I might try to swap out the 550cc for stock if i can find somneone to trade or buy em

 

Wait...stock fuel pressure with 550 injectors? Might be an issue.....

 

No No No No. Sorry to confuse you. The 550cc are in the back seat! You have to tune that bitch to run themz! I think there is a fuel pressure regulator in the trunk though if you want to try.

 

^^^ I hate jumping on other people's computers. I always forget to log it. Info is still good though.
