Hesitation, Flooding, & Fuel System Issues

[The Pun]

I am having some issues with hesitation and flooding. I am not sure if they are the same problem or two different issues.

Mods on car

Stage III seg ported blower, inlet and TB
2.93 upper / 4lb lower
Boost a Pump with wire upgrade
60lb injectors
Diablosport MAFia
JLT high boost CAI
Catted x-pipe and cat back

Speed Inc tuned the car kinda rich and I have the BAP set around 15-20% range. Can this cooler weather be affecting my tune or fuel system since the car was tuned during 95-degree heat? Anybody got any ideas besides not beating on my car?

- First of all after a wide open throttle run and I let off the gas and get back on it the car hiccups and kinda stutters then starts going again. Kinda scary at 100mph plus.

- The other day I was running her pretty hard and then she would not idle and kept dieing out on me. I had to feather the shit out of the throttle until I got to a buddies house to let it sit. I let it sit for an hour and it started back up and drove fine.

- I did a John Force style 100 foot burnout and then the car died out and seemed to be flooded. I let it sit again for 20 minutes and it started back up.

Thanks in advance.

Maybe blown FRPS???

Check the FRPS although I thought the car wouldn't run if they were blown? Another thing to try is to change the fuel filter.

identical problem i had thursday at the track in the cold weather with my headlight pulled out.. blew the frps.. un plug and drive it, see what happens, you dont need to beat on it, just drive normal and if it idles and the driveability is better it's the frps

#3 coming tomorow

You better change your oil, too, while you're at it.

 

[SVTdubs]

yup

The car seems to drive fine now, there is a slight bobble at idle now and then.

Smell your dipstick. Too bad you didn't live here yet, or I could smell it for you!!! Or if you think that's weird, I could have my gf sniff it. Let me know.

Nice - we could have Michelle come over and pass it around. :clap:

I go check it out later and see if gas got into the oil.

Pass what around???? You know I got the HPV shot.

Ok then - you’re out of the rotation then.

BTW - Any other ideas on what is wrong with my ride?

 

[Wiked03]

I would rule out the frps first.

Just ordered the FRPS now and will replace it.

Look man,,, sounds that the bap is the issue with the cut off, at the power level you are at Jeff you do not need the bap.....Trust me it does the same in Eric's Car like a dead spot at any rpm......Eddie but what do I know Im a beaner

Yep - that dead spot kinda sucks also, is there anyway to avoid to fix it?

 

[venmousracer]

Powershift the car or get rid of the bap you don't need the bap at the power level you are at, just retune the car,,,,,,,, I for one would choose a different tuner..........Eddie

I thought I had heard that one of the issues with the BAP and "dead spot" was the way the BAP is wired (before/after pump?). I'm not exactly sure, but maybe some of our experts can chime in.

I'm curious to know how your BAP is wired, and is it full time or do you have a custom HOBBS switch to not let the BAP kick in until X PSI (mine is set at 8.5)

I have the MJ chip wiring upgrade done by Hans with the Herman custom HOBBS switch. Not sure what it is set at, keep it at whatever herman sent it out to me at.

 

[ChicagoMike]

I doubt the BAP is your problem. Maybe you're getting ready to lose an alternator like me? lol

It dose not matter if the Bap is wired befor/or after, The bap is like a FMU except it increases voltage to the pumps.. I am telling you it is the bap or just the tune!!!!!!! either of these to things are the culprit, but what do I know Im a beaner and no one listens to me....Eddie

 

[The Pun]

but what do I know Im a beaner and no one listens to me....Eddie

Thanks Eddie, I love beaners! :clap: I will just deal with it then.

I am getting tuned by James in Jan anyways if it is the tune.
