I have a few issues I cant seem to figure out how to resolve. Im going to start from the beginning so I don't leave anything out.
I started with a stock long block LC2 with a PT6776S, and was able to get it to 11.91@113 before deciding to build a new motor.
I had my motor built by Aggressive(Bruce), finally got it back around the end of 2007. I drove it for the 500 break in miles and the car ran great. I then took it back to have it tuned after the break in period. I picked it up from Aggressive on a trailer, went straight to Milan, and it had knock at the 1/8th. I took it back to Aggressive to sort the issue immediately. Aggressive could not fix the issue, and my wife had some health issues that caused me to put my car on the back burner for a while. At this point it was driveable, but I never got into it because I knew there was an issue and I didn't want to hurt it. I rove it to a few shows during the summers, adding up to about 500-1000 miles total since 2007.
Fast forward to this past fall. I was checking out the car, and I discovered gas in the oil.
I changed the oil and filter, and did not want to attempt to start the car until sorting out what caused this. I sent my injectors (new 60lb. at new engine install) to turbotweak to have them checked for problems(came back with a clean bill of health), bought and installed a new Accufab FPR, and put another computer in the car in case there was a driver problem in here.
At this point I started the car, it ran fine. Everything seemed normal. I took it for a ride. It ran good and I put about 4 or 5 miles on it. I then laid into the throttle from a light, and when the boost started to come in (@0 psi) it started to sputter and not want to go. Normal easy driving is fine, but would not do any boost.
I have since changed:
Coil Pack
Spark Plugs (AC 24's gapped at 35)
Injector harness(to rule out a short in harness)
It still drives fine casual but will sputter under any boost.
To top it off, I checked the oil again today and it smells like gas.
Any advice as to what is going on or causing this?
Im in need of some help. I really want my car running properly.
Thanks for reading,
Tony
