Why won't it run?

[Bushido1346]

My car won't stay running after I changed the turbo it starts and ran for a minute then died but that was with the intercooler hose goin to the throttle body but nothing with it back on and then it flooded so bad the smoke came from every that smelt of gas

Did you do a boost leak test?

There must have been an installation error, maybe if you have some pictures we could find something easy you forgot to do, other then that Boost leak test is also a good idea, like insane20 said.

Boost leak? Would that cause it not to run. I didn't even think of that.

Also check for any sensors left unpluged, o2 maf ect..

 

[Bushido1346]

The o2 sensor isn't connected to the pms or the ecu. But I don't see why that would keep it from running with the intercooler pipe is on the throttle body or off.

Read this Boost Leaks - DsmWiki

yes your 02 sensor has to be connected.

 

[Bushido1346]

I do have a piggyback system on the ecu

Ok now I have the AEM o2 it's hooked to the gauge but doesn't run to the ecu yet I feel that may be beyond my electrician skills

 

[97_4g63t]

Are all your hoses and couplers tight? Where is the wb 02? Did you replace the stock 02? Any exhaust leaks pre 02 sensor? Where is your wastegate vacuum coming from?

Learn to do a boost leak test!!!

I have a tial wastegate and it vents from nothing I have an AEM o2 sensor and I'm sure it's leaking boost all my hoses were good it's got a gm map and a mad both of wich I think is hooked up how come it runs better with the throttle body hose off

Maf sensor not mad spell correct

Everything looks fine I don't have a wastegate vacuum and how do I connect the o2 to the ecu
