I have a plymouth laser with a 1.8. Now ive been looking into putting a turbo to it, and have figgered out how i can do it.
But i can till i get this one thing fixed. The issue is, when i start up and put it into gear, it has now power.
Now ive looked into the possiblitys that one: my Ecm is fried again, Two: my MAF is not workinf as it should, and Three my timing.
Well ive checked my timing, its good, and my MAF is reading 99.9, and if im not mistaken i think thats a little too high, right!?
and the only thing about the ecm is, is its not throwing codes like before to let me know it was bad, so i am sure that it is preforming like it should.
Now, Ive also thought about the dist. in my car as well, but im getting good fire. and i know i got good compression, its reading 150psi across the bord, and theres no water in the oil or any reasion to think that the head is bad.
So can any one help me with this issue, i really miss my little POS( as every one else caslls it).
If u can helpl pleas do, thank you for your time
Bryan
