I have an 89TTA with bolt on T-62, 009, 3400stall, Translator plus with Extender, Car since I'm owned it has always ran ****ty. I have the boost set at 10-12 lb for now with a 93 Extender chip and FP is at 43psi. 80k miles all stock internals.
3"MAF on setting 5 for base keeps idle Blm at 128 +- 3 seems to work good for idle settings.
Car has a misfire it seems, idle fair but with the car in park you blimp the throttle, the car wants to shut off mometarily. New AC delco O2, PCV valve, Spray Carb cleaner no change, new billet Vacuum port, no change. The MAF is a used one and I haven't yet tested with a good known one. I did the tapping test on the sensor and it doesn't stall.
I check compression on all cylinders and there all between 152-160psi. I should get the Casper Coil pack tester tomorrow to check for a weak coil and or module. New spark plug wires, spark plugs seem alright, brownish and a little gray on them. This is driving me insane. I'm sure I have an exhaust leak by the passenger manifold as I could hear some ticking coming from that side but for it to cause BLM to go to 160 thats ridiculous.
Last night I read all the archives on high BLM and I have a Mighty Vac. So far I tested the EGR by applying vacuum directly and it holds. The Vacuum needle to manifold at idle reads a steady 18.5"PSI and slowly bounces at times withing .5 psi. The car is awfully rich. The misfire is at idle and on load. The idle seems to get better if I choose to idle in open loop with the Extender Chip but everywhere else, anykind of throttle the car stumbles, leans out, no power, especially the harder you get on the throttle. However when you ease into it, the car feels a little better.
The worst part is while driving it. From a dead stop if you floor the throttle the car just feels like someone turned it off and slowly let it turn back on. NO POWER Whatsoever. I can't even outrun a Jaguar, thats pathetic. The car needs some CPR, Mouth to Mouth resusition or a heart transplant. HELP!
One thing I forgot to mention is the Boost Solenoid by the PS Valve cover is just there. Theres two ports, nothing is hooked to them. How does this affect driveability and if theres vacuum hoses or check valve how do I hook it up?
