FIRST DSM STREET BUILD!!!

[verified hick]

how does this sound?

 

[verified hick]

well got it running, worst part i have to take it apart again. if everything was right from spark fuel air then it had to be the timing or tables so i did both, i reset the timing i zero’d everything out on ecmlink and regapped the spark plugs, and bam it started, now i havnt gotten any real starts besides this one so no pressure was ever in any of the systems, so filled the coolant couples leaks off the turbo, got those figured out, then the oil leaks an fittings just needed tighting, but something was coming from behind the exhaust manifold down, so i followed it up and low and behold coming out of the exhaust cam seal just when i thought i had everything figured out. i did grab pictures of the live feed too. the air fuel ratio on ecmlink says 14.7 but my gauge goes from 20.09 to like 15,16s

Still sounds off to me. Try posting a log

At idle your timing shouldn’t be zero. I still think you should upload factory settings and start there.

i tried uploading the factory settings it wouldn’t convert to the ecu because there 3.18 and 3.19 my ecu says 3.20

currently not at the shop this is what i have, its a screenshot from a live when it was running past night.

 

[verified hick]

well made sure every map was for a stock car
fuel injectors set right for my 660 injectors with a deadtime of 180 per ecmlinks website
i have been trying to get my AEM series x wideband to work correctly too. the “afrratio” moves but the “aem wideband” is stuck and doesnt go up or down? i am still using the factory front 02 sensor.
rpm set at 800 in ecmlink
throttle seems to be working fine 0.63v at idle
heres a screenshot from my log, while it was idling
i tried to add every captured value i seen others have if i missed any lmk thanks this is all new to me.
i had to stop as im leaking oil from the turbo i believe so couldn’t really get it to operating temp for to long.

 

[verified hick]

just a little idle

 

[Justin DuBois]

At least it idles! Post a log - Your front 02 is showing 1.71v, and 8.4:1 rich off the scale.

You are stuck in open loop mode 1=on. For LTFT to work it needs to be in closed loop mode.

how do i get it in closed loop?

 

[verified hick]

like this?

 

[Justin DuBois]

like this?

Yes! - like that. Closed loop happens when Throttle position switch is closed, and engine running, and narrow band o2 is cycling up and down. There is a moment in the log when the ECU indicates closed loop, and then it stops. Not sure why.

Additionally; Please check that you have the MAP sensor configured in this screen:

Notice, there is no MAP sensor here.

I see you have Idle Air Clamp enabled. Is that for a reason?

okay ill check on the map! and no i dont know what that does, it must have been from the previous owner. should i disable it? im trying to get my car to run “stock” so lmk thanks!

 

[Justin DuBois]

Yeah, disable idle air clamp

 

[verified hick]

Yeah, disable idle air clamp

okay dope will do, i have a stock map sensor what should my settings be? i dont see a stock option.i do have a omni laying around tho if i do need it.

 

[verified hick]

heres the oil leak, im pretty sure im pretty sure im not supposed to be leaking oil thru my down pipe?

 

[chrisman287]

Turbo seals are shot I’m guessing

 

[verified hick]

new new unfortunately its the ebay special til i can get my built turbo done with justin. didnt want to risk any more issues with the other turbo, if i did rebuild it, the bolt holes for mounting and the 02 housing were all f***ed up anyways, so ill just buy new so hopefully it doesnt have any problems also finally got ahold of a new turbo oil drain all AN shouldnt leak a drop now to just get it all installed tomorrow and hopefully we can run her without oil leaks

 

[verified hick]

got it installed today didn’t realize the exhaust side of the turbo wasnt stock so i had to swap the one from the turbo i had on there. also the oil drains finally looking better, hopefully shes up and running later today

 

[verified hick]

got everything back together, went to start it, started died in a few seconds, verified everything was connected, tried again nothing. activate fuel pump gauge is zero weird. pumps already hard wired i can hear it running, verified there were no leaks no drips any where everything is dry, lines injectors all dry, take the line off at the rail, turned pump on fuel is present seems low pressure but present, verified i still have spark obviously fuel is an issue but wanted to rule anything else out, i think the stock pump is taking a shit, i have confirmed my aem340 works so ill be putting that back in and see if i get proper pressure.

 

[Justin DuBois]

If the pump runs, but there is no pressure, look at the O-ring seal between the pump and the pump hanger. I use the AEM340 with a stock hanger, but I needed to make a couple of modifications to keep the o-ring in place.

will do!

I just read this whole thread and now I'm rooting for you man. You're so close!

Some people have touched on the oil drain. edit: I looked at the photo again and it looks like you fixed it with the new drain kit!

You're crushing this build. Keep up the great work man.
