Sooo..The BRZ died
 
Hey all any insight in to this issue was appreciated.

Coming home last night from a track day, (No issues at all on track can drove great) I made it about an hour and a half out of a 2hr drive, my car stalls and dies on the highway.

What happened is driving along with cruse control on 65ish towing a tire trailer, car dips down to 64 and comes back to 65. I don't think anything of it and turn of cruse.

A few minutes later it happens again going up a slight slope, downshift to 5th everything is fine shift back to 6th. Happens again this time I put the clutch in and floor it revs fall and the engine stalls.

Engine will crank but not start, no obvious failures, holes in the block, clouds of smoke, good oil pressure. No excess oil in the catch can. NO CEL, no codes.

Mods: Jackson Racing Super Charger (stock pulley 93 oct Moto East Tune) Velox Catch Can, JR Oil Cooler, DW 300 Fuel pump.

No problems with the serpentine belt/belt tension?

Nope every thing looked good with the belt/tension ac was on and working great.

My best guess right now is the coil pack shit the bed.

coil pack will throw a code. Fuel pump issues will not.

You didn't see a charging system light come on while the engine was still working did you? An alternator issue won't throw a code either.

My guess is the fuel pump or injectors

No charging system light, the car was running fine and then just acted like it stalled. Battery was still strong enough to attempt to start 4 or 5 times and still not show any signs of being low.

So I think that rules out charging system.

Possibly now that I think about it when I installed the fuel pump I did not install all the oring's and it was similar, I had fuel pressure but would not start.

I will take a look at that.

can you log the MAP sensor output


bad MAP (manifold pressure sensor) car wont start


check fuel pressure, you should hear fuel pump prime when ignition on usually


can you read any CEL codes ? not all codes light the dash light

I would take the battery to an auto parts place to have it checked. It may not be quite strong enough to fully start the car. Might indicate an alternator problem. AMHIK.

Winner winner chicken dinner.


Turns out I ran out of gas.

Don't exactly know what happened as my fuel gage still read a quarter tank. It reads full now with a full tank.

Thanks to all of you for trying to help me out.
