Can you read this dyno? (ignition problem?)
dyno 1
dyno2
The first dyno reads one with a VERY lean run, that is from a long time ago with the wrong injectors in. The next to runs are with my car at full temp and major bogging issues. I was told that it would more than likely be becuase of an ignition related problem. I did some tunning with my VAFC on my last run, but I was dislexic, so you see a major loss of HP and increase in richness.
The seccond Dyno is when my car had only one bar of heat, so it wasn't completely warm (or atleast the first run was). It runs much smoother at this time. I also did as much tunning on the VAFC and FPR as I could, which gave me some nice results tunning the a/f ratio close to 13.2 (which I was told was optimal). No tunning changes between runs. Too bad they forgot to hook up the a/f on the first run eh? Same thing goes as far as bogging, it is running like something is holding it back.
Also I should tell you that my seccondaries were not opening at all, as I am pretty sure that I have the wrong solenoid hooked up to my IAB box.
Basically I want to know what you guys think I should do besides rechecking all the wire connections going into and out of the distributor. What else would the problem be? Anyone ever seen such speratic dyno lines before?
BTW, what do you think of my first experiance tunning my vafc?
I recently checked timming and it seemed fine. Idle is at 700RPM +-25 rpm. Brand new plugs were used right before dyno. This bogging has been going on for about a month now. I can't remeber when it started specifically though...
PLEASE HELP!!! TIA!
specifically tell me if ypu know what might be going wrong in the ignition...
