HELP! Car won't fire after Turbo Install
I just finished installing a FA20club turbo with AEM water/meth injection and new AEM 50-1210 fuel pump.
Tried starting it and the the engine was turning over but wouldn't ignite. I tried it a good 5 times for about 5 seconds each. Car has never had any problems starting before. |
Is the fuel pump priming?
|
^he beat me
Do you hear the fuel pump starting when you turn and let the key at on before starting the car? |
I think so. There's a whirring sound but it's coming from the engine bay.
|
I thought it was the pump so I tried pulling it but there was pressure in the lines.
|
Your MAF is connected?
|
Yup. All sensors are back on. I did have a bitch of a time getting the pump in and I'm not sure it was fully seated. Followed the DIY but no dice. I'm thinking that's choking my fuel supply if the inlet of the pump is under too much pressure.
|
Are the plugs connected properly? Not sure if they came out or not with your install. Im just trying to eliminate the easy stuff first lol.
|
Lol yeah all connections are good. First thing I checked.
|
Any codes?
|
Because it wouldn't start the dashboard lit like and Xmas tree. My tune is tomorrow so I got no reading devices right now.
|
Hmm sorry I am not much more help dude. Who is doing the tune?
|
Did you replace the stock map sensor?
|
Let's start from the basics. Did you upload the tune that came with the turbo? When I had my SC installed, I had a Visconti tune with a bad file. Car wouldn't crank. Switched to the stock tune but the car wouldn't crank.
Check the tune. |
