Re: Didn't bleed lifters - 90 cold compression new engine

So I messed with everything and it started up and purred beautifully for about 3 minutes 14.9 a/f then died. Since then it will only start occasionaly cold when I hit wot and run very rich only if I keep on the gas smoking pretty good. Let it die warm and that's it for the night.

I have changed or tried a different cts, cas, coil pack, power transistor. Link says cts is working, isc is trying to change the airflow, tps is .63. I'm told it's a maf issue possibly and my engine is flooding from too much fuel and flooring it stops the injection which enables it to start occasionally.

My gm maf is registering hz as well. It's about the only thing I haven't changed at this point but when I originally bought the car it had a 1g mas and did the exact same thing except would stay running. I thought it was because the headgasket was toasted but obviously not. WTF is the deal? Any ideas welcome - I'm going to trailer the bitch soon and take it in. I'm tired of driving my 15 mpg truck every day.

Oh - I got the engine off of VR4.org from darksideracing - IA.

Thanks for listening. Aaron
