hey guys..ive gotta 86 regal ttype that i bought last summer already modded. it has a scanmaster, only problem is the guy i bought it from didnt give me much info on what the reading mean. i would like to know the the 2-3 letter abreviations are and what numbers should be being read at idle as well as WOT. Any help is appreciated! :cool:
 
my car throws numbers that are pretty far off of the suggested numbers..like a good bit of spark knock on pump gas as well as high octane race fuels. i dont have a fuel pressure gauge that i can see while im driving it, could these numbers be coming from a fuel delievery problem? what kind of pressure should i be seeing at WOT? it has 55lb injectors in it.:confused:

Fuel pressure should be 43PSI w/ vacuum line off, around 38 or so back on. Fuel pressure should then increase 1:1 w/ every pound of boost. Stay off of boost until you get the knock addressed.

Also, update your profile to include your location. There's alot of tech savvy and generous individuals on this board that might can give you a hand locally.
 
okay thanks man..i would really like to take it to a guy that knows about them and can tell me how shes running. im also having a cooling problem..i replaced the radiator with an all aluminum one..a big one..lol i have a big precision front mount intercooler that i thought was blocking most of the air from getting to it so i mounted an elec. fan behing the inteclr. to blow thru the rad and a big one to suck through the rad as well..i replaced the thermo as well. still wants to get up to 230-240 and drop back down to 190..back and forth.?? any ideas? water pump maybe?
 
Also, a list of modifications done to your car: fuel pump, hot wired fuel pump, is your ecm modified for the 55# injectors?
