ok my car is retarded, straight forward conversion conversion. These are the symptoms: perfect start ****ed idle with missing, very loud sucking sound (almost like making boost sound) car will not make power and cannot achieve more than roughly 2500 revs i have tried the following (N?A plenum being used) CAS dizzy 3afms checked for boost leaks checked for proper setup of vacuum hoses 3computers 2 sets of injectors 3 rails fuel reg fuel filter changed oil filter and oil resealed plenum to inlet manifold twice changed coil pack tps the little vacuum thingy with the spring inside it (its brass looking) new leads new plugs tried shaking loom while car was running timing waste gate running car with no filter for turbo filled fuel tank upto half these are the things that may cause a prob that i cannot check leaking exhaust manifold due to threaded stud hole cannot check fuel pressure while car is running do not have guage if anyone can solve this prob i will give them cash in hand lol the car is ****ting me that much (note i will decide how much cash in hand) thanks apologise for long post chris

You checked the fuel pump?

burn it!

LMFAO that is the best suggestion yet nad it would solve so many problems and how do u think i check the fuel pump i haven't got a pressure guage

pinch the fuel line in the engine bay. turn the key. if yo feel it fill with fuel its ok

ahh do you have a turbo fuel reg?

my cuz had a similar problem...it was later discovered that his cam was out 90 degres....dont know/think that is the case here.

Make sure you have your fuel lines on the reg and the rail the right way, if there swapped you will get problems like this, fuel must enter the rail, exit the rail to the reg then return from the reg to the tank!

when i had mine on the wrong way it wouldnt even start

i put em back on identically, and to even prove i was wrong to a mate i put em on the other way maybe this info might help when i pull an injector off the car runs better, the car can rev over 2500 rpm, and it only has the miss from the cylinder getting no fuel. anymore ideas. dizzy not out either might not be exact but it isn't out 1st cylin on compression lined up the 10 deg mark with the mark on cam cover and set the dizzy button to first cylinder plug and i do not have a rising rate fuel reg but i know that at idle it wont make a difference. checked fuel pressure as well its at bout 35-40 psi due to a slight leak i think but all near specs

Have you checked that the leads are connected to the right spark plugs?

i have replaced leads and plugs and the dizzy is numbered and the cylinder injector number leads are numbered so it is impossible to put them in wrong. i think the solution o this problem is going to be from someone who has had the exact symptoms before. dont suggest the simle fixes either unless on the electrical side of things cause i have tried everything mechanical i had 2 working vls the other vl runs fine but this one is rooted

distributor 1 cog out

lol i have tried 2 teeth either way just out of curiosity and what are the chances the turbo could be causing a problem? eg waste gate not sealing or **** like that it spools up in neutral it can blow off piping in neutral

might be time to count the teeth on the timing belt man. sounds like a timing related issue

i think your right, but how can the belt move i never removed it. The car ran a few days before hand fine. basically the only way it could skip a tooth is that startmotor some how making it skip a tooth

it cant

well there ya go nothing to do with timing. a new coil, leads plugs cas and dizzy rules out the entire ignition side of things and the teeth arn't rounded or anything on the cog

burn it

what bout injectors has anyone had probs with them if so was it loom or bad earth or bad power etc. injectors have something to do with it removing one makes the car run better wtf
