Won't start
Just installed a Meanstreet on my Big Block Chevy. Running a Fuel Command Center, MSD Pro Billet and coil. Car will only start and run with a lot of throttle input. There are no fault codes. I'm pretty frustrated, was on hold for an hour Saturday, and can't get an e-mail reply from FiTech.
Have you tried adjusting the idle screw?
No, I haven't touched the idle screw. Do you have any suggestions that may help me? In addition, the motor has TAYLOR non-suppression spark plug wires and AUTOLITE non-suppression plugs. Could they be part of the problem?
First adjust the idle screw until it will run on its own. Within reason.... usually 1/2 to full turn at most and that would be a lot. Let it run. Watch your vitals. Once over 170 degrees on handheld, run a 30 second datalog at idle. Post a link here using Dropbox or Cloud.
Those plugs and wires can and will be a problem. Efi hates electrical interference.
Maybe a dumb question, but clockwise or counterclockwise on the idle screw?
Clockwise
Austin, I ran my Data Log and saved it to Dropbox. I'm new to Dropbox, can you give me a hint on how to attach to this forum?
Or could I just e mail the Excel file to you? thanks, roger
Upload the file to Fitech Tuning Forum on Facebook. That is mine also.
