ok my car has sat for about a week and a half. and i just put the axle
that broke back on a couple of days ago and didn't have a chance to
take her out until last night. and after she warmed up i started to play
around and get on it. then all of a sudden a blue flame shoots out from behind me. now it didn't actually backfire as in making a loud noise or anything, but when i would get on it and then let off it would shoot out.
what could be causing me to do this? my a/r gauge showed that i was running just a little on the rich side, but not in the red just in the orange,
and i am running around 50psi on the fuel pump. how bad is? this:confused:
thanks in advanced
 
ohh, and I forgot, whatever passes through the turbo that is not a regular harmonic exhaust will damage it in no time. So yes, even if I'm wrong about the problem, it will definitelly harm the turbo. maybe not right away since it doesn't happen all the time, but when a superheated impeller cracks from the shock of this flame, you'll know what I'm talking about

Gosh you are retarded. None suggested that he was really running 50psi of boost dude. I said that you cant cause your motor and turbo wouldnt last and thought he was joking aroun with us. Cant you see that this thread has developed farther than that point. I dont think anyone is dub enough to beleive 50psi is doable...we dont need you dumb comments!


You better go and call ninja an idiot now. We don't need youre stupid comments, so how about you stfu?;)

And look at the first time you posted on this thread, hmmmm...... you thought he was serious. Oh and then look, by the time you posted youre second post, you grew a brain.
 
Any one else want to comment on how they didnt read his post right and though it was 50psi + manifold pressure?

but i am still wondering why i am shooting blue flames out. i went and started her about an hour ago, and i could see the flames come out this time and they were blue. please can anyone help me with this
Let me understand you correctly, you meant to say it shoot flames just by starting it up?
 
no not when i start it up, i explained in a previous thread when it was shooting the flames. i was just stating that i had went and started it up and then kept pushing in on the gas and letting off it, just wasn't trying to rewrite how it was happening. cause i was in a hurry, like always.
