Whats up fam! So a couple of weeks ago i was out for a joy ride in the 1G. It was a hot california day when next thing you know my exhaust back fired like 4 times EXTREMELY LOUD! Then the engine died, pulled over and engine just cranked, looked at fuel pressure gauge and had pressure so im assuming i lost spark. Long story short i got towed. Let is sit for a couple weeks starts fine, drove it around block came home did a 2 step then it stalled again and would just crank. Should i chase CAS,PTU,COP or Dynatek Arc-2.


Sorry for the long ass story
 
Log "key start" on ECMLink and see if a "1" or a "0" appear when you try to start it. It is a very hard thing to diagnose so we could rule that out immediately if you can do the check.
 
Clean the terminals as best you can on the PTU and it's plug.
 
Whats up MARTY!!!! So i went back to the car after 1 hour same shit crank no start. Came back home for a lime and some water. Cleaned the terminals to PTU and she fired right up like a RAPED APE!! This is after the LIME! Before all the pins where Green! I will keep yall posted for future reference.
