Paulford8 Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 OK at idle when you first primed the pump did the car start stumbling? I primed it, and hit it again to be sure it worked and I didnt have a leak. System appears fine, no leaks but the car fell all over itself. I am assuming this is because the tune is not ready for any a idle. The nozzle location makes me nervous. I tried to get it front of the pre-map and angle it forward but I could only get just a bit in front of it. Didnt plug the IAT back in and had a fault code. At first I panicked until I looked under the hood and saw what I had done.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted September 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Must normal as everything runs fine and strong under WOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcoBrick Bob Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 If the engine stumbled a bit when you primed the system, that shows you the system is working. Your system once primed should remain that way due to gravity feeding the pump. However, I always check the prime when at the strip or when I plan to do WOT testing... of course I don't have this methanol system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrming Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Yep, very normal on the stumble! I usually hold the idle up, hit the test button and then watch my AFR... soon as it starts to drop i know i'm good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash712us Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 It's normal when I prime I turn the gain all the way up to 9 and hit test while holding 3000rpms. I am curious did you use wiper tank for meth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted September 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 Yes I used the washer tank and mounted the Alky provided tank just in front of it. Good thing I used the washer tank to! My "new washer tank" has a leak. I think it is because my impatient self used a 7/8 paddle when I knew a paddle wouldnt work well with plastic. I am going to call Julio Monday and buy a new tank & grommets. I just hope I can get it changed inside the passenger wheel well without taking the bumper off again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
