Thanks Wad.

Did a leak down today, each cylinder was consistent, with a +/- of 2 psi across the board.

I'm gonna swap injectors as soon as can and see what she does.


The 8's are a resistor type plug correct ?

depends on which ones.. there are 10000 different ngk 8 heat range plugs.

I always run 2668 .. bkr8eix

 

Sorry I should have been more specific, that's what I use as well.

If fuel is still the same at part throttle and idle, but is now requiron more and more fuel as rpm rises at wot id seripusly look into it being a fuel flow problem. Get a fuel presaure sensor on there. Pump could be going bad or a flow restriction somewhere.

That would sound like a pretty good candidate for it to be fueling issue, but 3 of the plugs are fine, only the 1 is on the lean side currently.

I'm going to swap injectors this week, and see how she does. Make a couple short pulls, shut down and check my plugs. I also borrowed a buddies WB to compare with mine.

I really hope the problem follows the injector. Be alot easier fix, either way I'll get to the bottom.

Appreciate the follow up(s).

Thought I'd bump this.

 

Any updates new injectors in?

Went around the block, and drove to a car show, 5 mins down the road, romped on it a few times, pulled plugs, they all looked the same, still going lean in boost.

On the way home from the show I rolled into 1st and 1st gear let loose, so yea.

 

I thought I'd follow up with this.

I was basing my lean condition on the look of my plugs, AND my wideband. I borrowed my buddies external plx WB, and hooked it up inline with mine.

Mine is off a bit. All the fuel I was throwing at the car to bring down the "lean condition", shows me running 10.4 in boost. SO, with that said, I'm going to pull some fuel back out, and see how she does.

I finally matted it for the first time on Saturday, and even on 10#'s, it screams. Now I have to figure out why my brand new aem WB isn't reading properly, not to mention, it seems very slow to respond, unlike his plx which was very quick.

Regardless, things are looking up with the car (except the first gear issue I had).
