engine atemps to start but die rightaway:confused: Iam currently using sytech base tune. need help please :banghead:
 
You will need to follow the manual to get the engine started and idling. Make sure engouh air is getting into the engine to keep it idling. You might have bypassed the original idle contollers so you may need to adjust the idle screw to open the TB butterfly.

When you know engough air is getting in and it still dies then you need to change settings on required fuel or after start enrichment. The manual is good about walking you through the correct steps so you don't adjust the wrong one first and go in circles.
 
One problem I had was the warm up enrichment was set to like 60% which was taking so much fuel away from the motor it would not run after the cranking PW ran out. Just something else to check.
