Why BR7ES and not BPR7ES?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Do you have another stock coil to try? How old does your coil look?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

You could have a bad plug. I know you said they are brand new but one could be bad. I had that happen to me before. You spark plug wires could be shorten out. You have a good battery and volts?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Better yet, what are their resistances?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Did you also try new quality wires?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

I have Taylor 10mm wires that I bought just before Brainerd last year. I have an extra set of plugs that I could throw in there and see if it does anything.. One coil was bad last year so I swapped it out and all was fine. I have a brand new yellow top battery in my car as well.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

No reason, I actually run bpr7es, but wanted to try br7es heard some good things plus seems like no-one stocks bpr's up this way. :(

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Do you have a volt gauge to make sure you have enough volts? Somebody last year had a problem they werent getting enough volts. just throwing stuff out there try to help.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

We usually use the BR plugs on nitrous cars and maybe some crazy high builds. Might lose some compression ratio with the short plug though. :)

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

I don't.. Both times Shane tuned it I had a alternator cel.. I might just get a new alternator and see what that does.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

What alternator should I get? I've heard a saturn one is good but also a galant vr4 one too? which is better? I want to get this thing ready for proving grounds this year! gonna be a beast if my plans pull through. I'm keeping my current setup but want to fix the break up issues and see if I can turn up the boost to make the 600awhp mark. I want at least 35 psi as I made 542awhp in shoot out mode on Shanes dyno. Whatever it takes and let er buck!

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

The galant one will just bolt right up, have you checked your grounds?
I'd add some too, it can't hurt.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Ya my grounds are legit. I guess i could add more but the alternator cel has been there for years.. Lol i know i suck ha ha

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

I picked up a new/used alternator from Nick (Cornfed2.4) but I'm running into probelms. No fuel pressure and I'm not hearing my fuel pump turn on at all... I am no wire wiz so this sucks.. I checked in line fueses and they all seem legit so I'm not quite sure where to start.. I know I should be checking voltage but I suck at doing that lol. Wiring is the worst of my abillities of working on my car.

I want this thing ready for proving grounds this year! haha

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Is the car at your place? I could maybe swing over sometime this week or next weekend and help you with it

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Maybe check the fuse on the boost a pump. Mine blew once which left me stranded with no power going to the pump.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

+1 for what brad said. There is also the mpi relay under the dash that may have gone bad. It's a gold box located under the radio on the right side.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Same thing happened to be with your old BAP... Except I was at RF. I had to jumper wire it to run again and get home.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

I checked all in line fuses including the BAP.. And yes it'a located at my place still. That would be cool if you were able to swing by and give a hand sometime this week.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Alrighty. Sounds good. I'm Monday and Wednesday I'll be free later in the evening, Thursday I think I'm working on the talon, and them Friday I'll probably be free and Saturday after work. I'll text you tonight or tomorrow and we can figure something out.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Sounds good man

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

The factory fuse for the fuel pump usually needs to be upgraded also when you use a BAP.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Is this fuse under the dash?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

I replaced both in line fuses and as I thought, they were both good and still no power to the pump.. I would think that the in line fuses would blow before anything else would?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

P.s the terminals accidentally crossed because some moron wasn't paying attention :/

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Ok so my ecu is shit.... I talked to Thomas Dorris from ECMtuning and he sent me a link on what to look for in my ecu and sure as shit! Toast.......

I am in the market for a new EPROM ecu and have a few leads as of right now.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

I also want to thank Shawn (4seasons) and Nick (CornFed2.4) for helping me with diagnosis and information on this. Thanks a lot guys!

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Sucks dude! And no problem glad we at least got it figured out!

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Does suck! Still want to see a few quick red 2gs @ proving grounds.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

I'm trying... haha

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Ok so I picked up a new eprom ecu from 1999gst tonight. Great guy! He pulled it from his running car today and even opened it up for me to look inside.

When I got home I plugged it in just for shits and gigs, not to see if it would start but to see if the fuel pump would turn on. NOTHING!!! FML.. At least I know that its not just the ecu. Next step I think is going to be replacing the stock relay under the radio. Mine is the little black plastic one.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Shitty

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Is your BAP bad? Try hooking/wiring it without the BAP and see what it does. You can fry a BAP easy if wires were hooked up or crossed wrong.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

I found a fried main fuse. Swapped in a new one and pump works! Now I need to get my new ecu socketed

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Good to here you got it figured out .

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

So was your ecu bad for sure then or could your BAP be fried?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

His ecu was fried. When you turn the key on the cel wasn't coming on and The ecu wasn't grounding the stock fuel pump relay. When I supplied a ground for the stock fuel pump relay the pumps would come on.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Yea thanks shawn. Plus when I opened up the ecu it was blown.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
 

Ok that is good. I read before that the BAP is easy to fry if you cross wires wrong on them at all.
