leans out

[2003_svtcobra]

Well i put a new alternator on it about 2weeks ago and got the fuel line in the tank fixed when one came off. But now it wants to lean out 13+ on my wideband around and past 6k. The rest of the power band is around 11.6 Any clue whats going on?

That is very lean for a car in boost. Does it feel any different power wise, Maybe same issue as before with the line or maybe a issue with the wideband?

Go back in the tank and fix the problem.

i dont think its the line in the tank i had bob fix it. and he is the only guy i trust to work on it.

Anything is possible, especially if Mitch worked on it. :alcoholic :lmao:

It doesn't have to be a person doing bad work, but a part that could of went bad.

shit!!! im really thinking about just ditching my cobra pumps and getting gt pumps and a fore hat. but the i need to upgrade my fpdm, and get a retune! but im f-ing broke with my hours cut in half at work.

 

[01bluesnake]

I am now broke too lol, and work is slow, shi**y.

could the alternator not be making the volts past 6k?

 

[01bluesnake]

I've seen crazy things happen....

 

[01bluesnake]

Do you have a way to log your voltage and Fuel PSI while making pulls?

ive tried hooking my tuner with my live link program on my lab top. but i cant get it to work

 

[01bluesnake]

try to get it to connect, and go from there.

 

[2003_svtcobra]

ive tried for over an hour to get it to work on my lab top. im just thinking about puting my multi meter on there to read my volts.

 

[01bluesnake]

you can do that with the multimeter, but not sure if that will help if the issue is around 6k. You drive, i'll stay under the hood and test If you were closer, i could hook up my scan tool and data log. not sure if there is another way to check this with data logging or pulling stuff apart.

 

[2003_svtcobra]

my multimeter can log high a low volts

Id bet money the tank has to come back down.

i personally dropped the tank and found that the PPRV delete lines were completely loose.. 1 had fallen off even... i redid them, tighten the clamps, and feel 100% positive that its not an issue.. i did notice that the fuel filter was slightly kinked.. i would start there..

 

[2003_svtcobra]

Thanks Bob ill start there

Bob has spoken!

Thats what i've been thinking also, have heard nothing but bad things happening with those., between the y breaking or the lines popping off.

the car has a PPRV delete that nate originally installed himself... he called me about a week ago to tell me the car wouldnt run etc... he limped it out and left it overnight.. I dropped the tank to find all the clamps were loose and 1 line to a pump was completely off.. i then reconnected, TIGHTENED, and reinstalled the assembly making 100% sure that it was all good and not pinched etc... im 99.9% positive that the lines are fine unless one ruptured.. but, his issue before was the car wouldnt make more then 5psi fuel pressure and wouldnt run at all..
