I don't think my alky is not spraying. But I see the alky light come on at WOT. I think it might not be spraying because when I check the alky level(which is at half bottle right now) it looks like the level hasn't changed. What can I look for?
 
you dont think its not coming on? so its coming on then, lol, j/k. if it wasnt spraying you would be getting lots of knock so if you can go WOT w/o any knock then i would say its spraying. have you tried using the test button? i run full pump speed and ill think i used a lot and its not near what i thought. whats ur pump speed?
 
I have been tuning a fair bit as of late, a lot of WOT runs. I was very surprised at how little alky the kit uses. But it's staving off knock at 22 psi, so that's all I care about. My car is pretty mild so I'm only running at 6.5 pump speed (about 40 psi on the alky gauge). Definitely check your knock. With your combo, if you're running anything over 18 psi with no knock, the alky is working!

But yeah, use the test button at idle and see if it stumbles. If so, the alky is working. If the light does in fact come on, listen for a CLICK which is the pump coming on. Good luck!
 
Ok then my alky is spraying:D The car does stumble when I press the test button. Pump speed is at 8. I'll turn it up to 10 to see if the alky level goes down fast. I get no knock when at WOT. Only problem is now I can only get 18 lbs. in all gears.
