No mosquitoes yet!!!

Checked all connections before and were solid there. Like an idiot I did not check my IC for leaks when I swapped them....assume d it was solid but you know the saying about assuming things. 

WOT does get above 4.25 but barely and you need to be serious about how your stepping on it to apply enough pressure to get it there. I have tps set at .42 but think I'm going to try to get it set at .44. .....trying to get a bit more at WOT to assure computer reacts accordingly

Also second guessing my translator settings as I can't check them now, will make sure thats right.

Thanks Steve!!

These logs are right after unplugging the orange wire underhood. I always unhook that when messing with ecm. So these logs are with only 10 minuets of highway driving.....co mputer was probably still learning? BLM was between 125 and 128

Will try it

So when I know its for sure warmed up I want to see 780-800 at idle?

yes, pretty steady in the 800 range, when you touch the gas for a sec it starts jumping again then settles back at 800 range.....I have chip set to 5% rich at idle so its just above 800

Steve, I'm starting to believe it is false. Had the injectors professionally cleaned this winter. Put a new fuel filter in this morning and its a fresh tank of 91 non ethanol.

I hope I can get some logs!

Thanks!!

Update.....thi s power logger is junk so no logs to see. Hooked up fp gauge and tested. Cruise fp is about 41 on gauge, leaving it in 3rd and run steady 5 lbs boost for a long run, fp stayed steady about 47-48. Sm numbers move up and down and it starts to read knock...as high as 9. Then ran a steady 10 lbs boost, fp runs up to 51-52 , sm reacts the same.

New plan is to pull computer with logger out of my car, an old style SM came with car so hopefully that works and I will see if I can get a log to look at. 

I had the windows down, I know what knock sounds like and if it really was pulling 9 degrees of timing I would think I would have heard the rattle. I did hear it for just a second on in the middle of the long 5 lb pull but it went away right away.

Thanks Mark, yes Eric got back to me and said it should work, just a bit lower on boost. Getting some pl issues sorted now and then will get knock issue sorted

Its all coming together, getting headliner delivered today and will have all interior restoration parts on hand to complete interior!!

Never thought of that, I can keep the sm hooked to orange wire so it will work also. 

I did figure out I do have 60 lb injectors so that theory is out

Doing some research, evidently there is some capisitor mod that needs to be done to an older logger ( can't find any solid direction on it) and then a reflash to get the SM G to work with it. I have a post in to Eric asking whats up.

Tried to hook up PL and when I turn they key to on but not start car the SM just jumps numbers all over with O2 and knock readings constantly changing...... .I think the pl is junk unless you need to do something special with these new round SMs

Had a little time today dug into cruise not working. Prior owner had a checkvalve in backwards to no vacume to it.....fixed that and cruise works great. Thought maybe I would get lucky and that check valve was causing my knock issue...nope. if I run her at a steady 7-8 lbs of boost I can watch the SM slowly lean down until knock starts. I checked fp rise before and it was good.. Its obviously sucking in un metered air from somewhere but I can't find it. I have covered this motor in carb cleaner to the point of being seriously concerned about it starting on fire and no rise in rpm? I'm running out of things to check. I was told it had 60 lb injectors but maybe they are not? They are Moto....someth ing, I can't read the rest and the only common numbers on them are INJ- gas-006. Assuming if they are smaller injectors the ECM is thinking its sending the correct amount of fuel but its not enough so it leans out???
