they looked at my throttle ratings and it was the same thing marcelo

 

same as what? 20 something percent? or 0-2%?

 

no pete didnt try lol, pete just giving me ideas of what it can be.

 

they said i have the same as u

 

What's the fuel pump? Aftermarket or stock? How's all the vac lines?

 

sounds like a backwards maf my friend had this problem might be try it the arrow should point to the throttle body

 

figure it out yet?

 

no sir! the MAF is right. the vacuum lines are good and fuel pump still stock.

 

from what i was told.

 

hmmmmmm are you getting spark?

 

yup. spark plugs smell like str8 fuel though. lol

 

hmmmm you must have a loose connection

 

Problem sounds very similar to something that happened to me. Turned out that my MAF sensor went bad. Once it was replaced my car started just fine.

 

thats what i think also but they said maf is fine.

If you use an OBD-II scan tool, it will tell you that the TB is at about 15-20 percent, this is normal and not to be confused with the TPS input signal on the Ultimate, which unless you've dialed in acceleration enrichment is mostly and unused input signal.

Assuming your engine sensors are not at fault (i.e. maf sensor), you may want to try a fresh set of stock heat range spark plugs. The tC will be very, very diffcult, if not near impossible to start or keep running if the plugs are soaked with fuel. Trying to start a newly built engine makes things even worse.

Another thing you can try too, since you have the EMU.....start the car with the gas pedal to the floor, it will fire the plugs without introducing fuel into the engine (designed as a way to clean the plugs if they get fouled out). After a few cranks, let off the gas pedal and start the car normally and see how it goes. Just make sure your EMU's tps sensor is calibrated to recognize 100% tps, otherwise the feature will not work.

Good luck and let us know how things turn out.

i will let my mechanic/tuner know. we will see how that goes. thanks p-tuning!

 

when do u have time marcelo... i wana go check out your car myself.

 

let me know when you can besdies sunday and i'm down to take a drive up there and check it out. they wouldnt mind also.there going to put in another maf sensor today to see if its that. they are going to use soflo's maf to check it out. they said they checked my maf with a voltage meter and it was working so we will see. i will call them in a little bit and let them know everyones comments and see if they try it out also.

 

i thought the TC cannot go past the 80's in full throttle? or do you mean 100% throttle meaning the pedal to the floor?
