New start-up help

[Scoobum]

I'm retired as well so I'm trying to do this as cheaply as possible. 44's are the correct heat range...but you should get it running with the 42's. Gap them at .030. Toss a new fuel filter on...and new O-rings on the injectors. Ohm the coil pack...11-13 thousand is the range. If you verified the thermostat is opening then it's good. The fuel pump sitting for so long mite be an issue. On the first test drive verify the fuel pressure is rising 1 for 1 with boost.

I believe that diesel shops can clean them but maybe not flow them.
Personally I don't like second guessing. i/d just get new flowed ones from whoever you ordered the chip from.

You guys are gonna make me go find a part time job!

The current chip in your car...may have a lower fuel pressure static setting. Maybe that's why it's blackening the plugs...who knows.

I have one more set of 42s that I'm gonna wait till the new chip comes in to install. Whats the danger in setting the fp lower say no less then 35? I'm not taking the car out on the road yet. Just trying to get it running smooth. Don't even have a set of tires for it.

You could try turning it down a little at a time and see if the idle smooths out. Personally, I'd wait till Erics chip arrives. When it comes to these cars...guessin g is never a good idea.

I'm up here in Canada about 90 minutes east of Toronto in a small resort town. Track closed on the 14th of last month...and doesn't reopen till the first week of April. Currently resurfacing the stairs to the rec room and painting the hallway. Got lots of little jobs to keep me busy till the track reopens.

I posted the PDF file on the previous page...is it not the same? I see on yours Bobs talking about wastegate percentages. Can you explain in black and white how to adjust high gear fuel with his chip.

My buddy Steve who races with me with his Turbo'd Hayabusa uses an Ultrasonic Cleaner. I've seen it at his shop. It's a small container with a special solution. Throw your items in and it cleans them. Sorta looks like it's bubbling when it's on.

Here's a vid of the Ultrasonic Cleaner. The one Steve has is much smaller...ran him about 300 and some odd bucks American. Works mint.

Wot high gear turn the knob on the translator to add.

Read the whole document- if it still doesn’t make sense I’ll see what I can do later.

Why do you think you have to. once set up properly. if the weather changes with the computer controlling fuel it will compensate.  no muss no fuss.
On a regular chip the high gear fuel is a fixed value and needs to be tweaked manually.
