Car will turn over and eventually barely start and i can give it gas , it'll rev then want to stall unless i give it full throttle. Seems to be running severely rich but wont stay on long enough to get a good afr reading , looks to hover around 9-10:1 during the short time it runs
Just checked all the similar threads, and a few ideas. i have an s90 throttle body with a block-off plate, nothing but the butterfly and a 91-94 tps, could this cause it to not want to run? getting 0% tps on ecmlink, maybe i soldered the wires wrong? (i'm 99% sure they are correct) Could i do anything with the Fastidleiscpos tab to compensate?
Also my coolant temp is stuck at 226*, i'm starting the car without the radiator in it, don't think that would make the temp read that high, maybe the sensor is bad? some of the threads give a similar issue, Could i zero out the cooltempfueladj and solve this?
EDIT: i found my coolant temp wires were plugged into the ac/ switch on the t stat housing, i'm pretty confident that is what is wrong, however if i try to start my car now my wife will surely castrate me in the garage where i stand , so ill post tomorrow!
The car has a speed density setup, i assumed that was why and borrowed a stock mafs and changed the settings accordingly, still same thing. i am registering airflow both ways during the short intervals of the engine running. i have an iat sensor and an ecm plug and play cable, iat's are stuck at 77* normal?
i'm not sure posting a log of the start-up will make a difference, but if you think it will help i will. The car is also showing speed at 5mph? car isnt moving.
I am trying to not be so vague, i'm very frustrated and confused, i have never run a car with dsmlink this will be my first time, I've researched as much as i found that pertained to my issue, i guess i just need a second opinion i'm in the garage myself all night working with this thing and its getting very discouraging.
i am also running a wb o2, have not hooked up the wire for nb simulation yet, could this also be a problem? (do not have a NB o2 at all)
If i missed an important piece in this E-diagnostic please let me know I've got all the information.
car is on : 1050cc inj, bfp 43 psi global fuel is -61 345ms with speed density and/or stock 1g maf (plug and play with SD) this is the first time starting the car, I've tried for a while two nights in a row. Throwing 0014 Throttle position circuit malfunction CEL.
Not sure if its relevant, but the car will not start from turning the key , however it will start with a manual push button, i'm not sure why,
