    Ran out of Gas - Now won't start

    oops, my mistake. comp sends 12 v to term A to turn on relay, term C is ground, term D is 12 v, term B goes to pump.

    Ran out of Gas - Now won't start

    did you check the fuses? I think 2 wires are hot with key on at relay connector, then one goes to pump and the other goes to comp. I think the comp turns the ground on and off.

    new owner and need some guidance on build

    The only thing I would add to the other suggestions listed above is a bigger CAC and piping. Gotta cool that air and get the volume up to the throttle body without a flow loss at high boost and rpm's. A visual monitor of the parameters is a MUST if you want peak performance without the...

    help with spark issue

    Did you scan the comp for codes? When you changed cam sensor did you set the timing by the procedure? Do you have rpm sig while cranking? Check volts to coil pack while cranking. Try a spark tester on plug wire to see if there is a spark. Some timing lights with induction clamp don't work well...

    7 year project is finally running

    I have only used the PL to monitor things. I haven't tried to record yet. Gotta play with it to learn how to use all the features. I also want to get a map and fuel psi signal into the PL. That would be real helpful in reading what is going on. I have a map sensor, just have to wire it in...
