I installed DW1000cc injectors, blaqops fuel, full bbx turbo, and a base map for this set-up. The car turn on fine for about 4 times so I went to the gas station to fill her up and drove back home. The car was parked for about 1 hr and now it won't start at all. Tried about 15 times with no results besides the engine trying to crank over. I checked the fuel by removing the line connected to the fuel rail and fuel did shot out before the first crank even happen. Didn't check the injectors because the car ran fine to the gas station and back.

The only thing that I could think of is that too much fuel is going to the engine but how did it start about 4 times before?

Any ideas what went wrong?

 

check for spark maybe?

 

Going to check this in the morning, because the stores are close right now. Don't have any tools right now to check them.

I just done understand how it ran fine and started fine, then all sudden quit.

 

dont worry thats the least of your problems lol my transmission just went

 

What is Madrican your trans guy? Pull your plugs and see if they're wet.

 

I just pulled the one closes to the passager side and it was a little wet bearly though

 

any check engine codes present?

 

when you turn the key does it sound like it wants to start..ie..getting fuel?

 

no codes and yes it is trying to crank over but no juice I guess.

I put my stock injectors back on and the car started right up. It's hard to believe that the injectors are bad because I drove for about 1hr with them and no problems, but as soon as I park and turn off everything went down hill.

Now I have to deal with Deatch Werks and try to get this injectors replaced. Hopefully, everything goes smoothly.

 

Talk to your tuner, the guy that gave you the "base map" before you call Deatch Werks. Could be a very simple fix in the tune.

 

Thats what I was thinking, but how was the car able to start about 4 times before this happen. If the base map wasn't right wouldn't the car not start the first time?

 

So after you installed the 1000cc injectors, who adjusted the injector scaling and latency compensation tables? It's possible that you flooded the engine when trying to start it the 5th time, which would force you to wait a bit before the fuel evaporated. You might have some luck pushing the throttle down while trying to crank it over at that point, hot starts can be different from warm starts and cold starts as well.

Also keep in mind that the idle and cruise LTFT's learn over time, possiblly they shift to make certain starts more difficult. Do you know what your LTFT's were hovering around after installation?

 

I tried pressing the gas pedal with no results. I also let the car sit all night and it still didn't start in the morning.

I don't know about the LTFT settings because I am doing the E-tune thing with Mitch from AMS.Hopefully, I could figure out what is happening soon, because this rental car is adding up...lol

Thanks,

Jose

 

..on many variables such as temperature. When was the last time you put a fresh set of plugs in her?

 

does this problem only occur when the car is hot? like on hot starts? or does it do the same thing when u try cold starting too? sounds like a scaling/latency or starting enrichment problem in the tune
