ive had bad luck with the gunk issue so far. while the first time could be partially my fault (i let them sit in my dirty/dusty basement for a month) one injector was clogged.

got them all cleaned and flow matched by FIC and put them back in the new motor, 2 tank of gas now i think one is starting to get clogged up again, have yet to confirm, will pull my injectors soon. ill also pull my double pumper to see what my socks look like

FIC 2150's

 

Interesting, east and FIC's again.

To add to this thread, and this is not pointed towards psphinx81 whatsoever, but just in general,

To be clear I didn't post this to say nobody is having issues. I posted it to show what my system looked like after the time stated. Anybody that projects thinking I'm trying to make it gospel is delusional.

 

nevermind! it turned out my one wire came completely out of my plug and play connector on my injector somehow. put that sucker back in and all is good, however my injectors looked absolutely perfect so thats good!

 

Thanks for the update. Be careful out there.

 

Excellent pictures and great information, thanks for posting it.

 

I did post that I'm using RC1000 and run E85 from Pearson here in San Diego.

So your theory has little merrit. This is not an argument, it's a way to track down the route cause of the "Gunk".

 

Yea that's fine It's good to see it isn't just FIC. So maybe the actual fuel factory process.

The photos I shot in this thread are of RC1000 as well, but using Propel E85, not Pearson.

 

awesome! i see that you said the car sits for a while without being driven, i was worried about running e85 since my car gets driven only about 2 days per week, but i guess its no problem?

 

Car sits for 3-4 weeks on average for the last year. I drive it for about 4-5 days, once a month.

 

great writeup. thanks for posting

 

Awesome write up,
I have had the fuel pump grommet get brittle and rip on a track weekend... the car would run super lean once into boost

 

Would the gunk issue be more likely for those that switch back and fourth from pump and e85? Some may have e85 more readily available where they can run it all the time.

 

excellent photos and info. I am itching for Propel to get one click closer to my house as they are expanding in my SoCal area. I want E85, and doing a little research. Good info.

 

This car has now sat for 13 months without moving or the motor being run.

I'll take some photos of how everything looks when I start getting it ready to be put back on the road.

Should be interesting.

 

wow this is awesome and people e85 gums up the fuel system i call bs ha ha
