Ok guys, here is one for my leanred Buick brothers.
I have a 532 procharged BBC with a FAST ECU. I just got it back from FAST as I had it converted over to SEFI.
Just for the record I have run 36lb, 83lb, and currently run 160lb. injectors and it didn't make a difference in my problem.
I did run a MSD billet HEI distributor and now I have a MSD pro billet magnetic pickup since there was no available HEI dist. with a cam sync. pickup. I had the ECU converted over to the magnetic pickup and got a new wiring schematic for the magnetic pickup box and made sure the wires are all correctly connected.. and I got it running so I must be ok with the wiring. And all of my sensors seem to always read correctly.
I've also run at least three different sets of plugs and none have really made a difference as far as my problem does.. I currently run NGK 7s (I can't remember the actual numbers at the moment but they are two ranges colder than stock. I also have new plug wires which all checked out ok as far as resistance is concerned.
I also run an MSD 6AL box and have tested it for spark according to MSD instructions and it seems to work fine... I guess.
OK. here we go.. the car has always smoked even with a newly rebuilt motor, the cranking compression is 120 across all cylinders (blower cam and low compression pistons) and the leakdown test showed no more than 2% leakage.
I can take fuel out of the base fuel table until the car dies and it smokes right up to the point when it dies.. the smoke definately smells like gas and spreads all over the neighborhood... it seems to randomly get better and then worse... back and forth... it just doesn't seem to matter really what I do as far as adjusting any of the fuel tables... the car still smokes. And the wide band does go up and down as I add and subtract fuel.
I did take the car out a few weeks ago and drove it about 20 miles. It actually stopped smoking after I drove it for a while.. I drove it home... let it cool off over night... sure enough the next morning it smoked again non-stop.
What do you guys think? Norbs? I think I have some incomplete combustion, weak spark (although it seems pretty strong to me when I test it), or my MSD box isn't working correctly. This smoking problem has existed from the very beginning even though I have had the ECU upgraded to SEFI and am now using a new distributor. For whoever figures this one out I will gladly send you $100. Seriously!!!
