When you car poped on the line and you had to back it up....did you make any clean passes tonight? Sounds like you stuffed some big injectors in there..idle was alittle rough ;) Hope everything is ok

He put his FAST on it and some 160lb. injectors. Having a little trouble getting it to idle right though and I think he fouled out some plugs last night.

Yeah.. I had problem after problem .. First it fouled the plugs - Then I got it running (barely) and it popped the fuse that controls a distribution block that the MSD is on.
I am going to rewire that shit today and hopefully it will work. Last night when I got home I made some interesting discoveries that I had jacked up in the tune. I think It will be better tonight and hopefully finished for the cruise. :cool:

well.. I had the VE tables all jacked and not to mention I found the fuse-blowing-culprit was a grounding out fan wire. I relocated the wire directly to the battery and it made a huge difference. I got the timng/ and air fuel straightened out.. the car is totally different.

Jeremy - You need help.

Well.. I spent most of the day jacking with it.. and now it is a WHOLE lot better than it was. The idle is still kinda rich but it comes up on boost on the 'brake pretty easy now.. It's about 12:1 on the 'brake .. we'll see.

Yeah I know right! The newest one is my favorite so far though, probably gonna keep it for a few years. Atleast until the new F-car comes out finally.
