ECMlink Cant increase timing on dsmlink

Never mind about the afr, my computer finally updated so I can see it. Fixing now

This section. IDK why there's such a huge difference in MAFRaw and MAF. Your bfp is 44 with the hose off and fully warmed up?

Ok gotcha, and I had adjusted the bfp to that range but I don't think it changed when I put the hose back on, I did buy it used so I'll check that today, that could be messing me up bad, I also have a problem where if the engine is cold it takes a good 7 seconds to start, catch a couple times before it actually starts, this could be related.

Range??? haha. Warm up the car, pull the vacuum hose off the afpr and plug the vacuum hose with your finger. Then set the bfp. I don't think that's the issue with the long crank. I had long crank issue when starting the car cold, turned out to be 3 intake valve that were out of round. Warm start was fine. I rebuilt my head and it starts like a champ

Haha will do, do you think that could be my problem as well with the valves? Because even after switching to 3g lifters, I still have lifter tick at idle that cuts on and off.

 

[Sam's GSX]

Haha I only said range because I had set it to 43.5

Smell your oil to see if it smells like fuel and do a compression test. IDK why your 3g lifters stick tick.

Did a compression test 2 weeks ago,
172 168 162 166, and I dont know if its necessarily "lifter" tick, but something does tick at idle sometimes.
I can probably set up a camera on my fuel pressure gauge and see if it goes up with boost, that would be the easiest way to tell if I need a new afpr.
By the way, thanks for your help so far man, its already much better.
