Silly ricers getting what they deserve.

He shoulda' watch F&F3:Tokyo Drift first.. then he'd be a pro and still have a none-fuxored 240.

thats obviously not my car, it didnt have speed paint chipped off.
I call BS.....
though on a side note, after driving my car all day yesterday..... it flooded again.....

[M@]

^ I know

WTF!? Oil full of gasoline again too?

[chris_venturini]

well it did hydrolock so im sure some got in the oil

Did this happen while it was running, or after you shut it off and tried to start it again?

[chris_venturini]

while it was running. it ran perfectly fine all day, then, as i was leaving red rocks, it started to stumble, went to 3 cylinders...... ran rough..... then died with the rich smell of gasoline filling the air.

Is that why you never called me? Asshole.

Crazy. I'm kind of suspecting the MAF, since now it has the turbo and all that IC piping between it and the engine. Even assuming that there are no leaks, there's still going to be a delay between the MAF reading the air and the engine actually getting it. I'd get that MAF as close to the throttle-body as possible... assuming that it will still work in a blow-through configuration. But it seems like there's more to this problem than that... unless it's just making the ECU flip out and inject all kinds of fuel.

[chris_venturini]

i already relocated the MAF and its right next to the throttle body. the only thing i can think of is the seals on the injectors. i think the injectors must be warped or something along those lines to allow so much fuel to get by.

But even with bad seals, it shouldn't be injecting too much fuel... if anything, it should run lean because the engine is sucking in air through the leak (which of course hasn't been measured with the MAF). A vacuum leak should only cause it to run richer when it's under boost, because then it would be a post-MAF boost leak.

It seems that for whatever reason, the injectors are sticking open. Assuming it's not an electronic or ECU issue, the only thing I can think of is the fuel pressure being super high (or is getting that way at times) and the injectors are having trouble shutting because of it, but I have some doubts about that. I'm assuming that it's doing this on more than one cylinder, right? Are you sure those other injectors didn't need a resistor box? if they did, maybe you screwed up the ECU's injector drivers or something.

BTW... when you removed the AFC, you re-connected the MAF sensor wire, right?

[chris_venturini]

yeah i reconnected it, im using stock injectors so i know they dont need a resistor and the other injectors are also high impedence nissan injectors so they dont need it either. With a leak in the injector seal it will run rich cause nothing is stoping the fuel from getting into the chamber. there shouldnt be any vacuume leaks of any sort, and if there are it would be wouldnt be causing the car to run as rich as it is. Im thinking i just need to not be cheap and buy brand new injectors, either that or my fuel rail is fuxored.
