    Boosted Mustang - Lean condition at part throttle

    Update - I did the ignition upgrades after the tune ( MSD 6al2, MSD coil and new wires ). I believe it needs to be retuned and more fuel added down low...tuner also agrees.

    Boosted Mustang - Lean condition at part throttle

    Hi guys, Finally got my boosted mustang running decently but now I have a lean condition at partial throttle. I had it in at the shop and they had a brief look but they think it might be dirty O2 sensors. They checked grounds and vacuum leaks. Problem seemed to start up once I changed my msd...

    This cars turning into a flippin nightmare. It was the lower hose from the heater core. Father in law who’s normally more than capable changed it for me as I’ve been working 80hr weeks. Finally get a chance to take it out and car pulls hard but has a surge at roughly 3k rpms. I decided to...

    Engine Coolant leak - Spraying from Passenger Side

    Thank you sir , I apologize - figured changing topic in the other thread wasn’t a good idea lol those hoses are definitely in rough shape. I’ll grab a pressure tester from my buddy tomorrow AM...the fact the coolant was spraying out the side makes me think it has to be one of those hoses...

    Engine Coolant leak - Spraying from Passenger Side

    Hi Guys, Car was just on the dyno a few days ago and after a few pulls we noticed a small puddle of coolant on the ground. After paying attention it looked like the leak was coming from the area around the heater core hoses on the passenger side. It’s right above the passenger valve cover. The...

    Finishing Touches On Sc V2 Install

    Little off topic but when the car was on the dyno it started to get a coolant leak...some was dripping down from the passenger side onto the ground. Once the car really warmed up it was actually spraying out the passenger side. Attached a pic of the area...I’m not sure if it was the heater core...

    Finishing Touches On Sc V2 Install

    So everything went pretty well at this tuner...he actually found no fuel issues at all. Car made 463rwhp and 460tq very conservative on timing. Only issue we were seeing was the car is blowing out spark at roughly 5850rpms...you can definitely hear it. My MSD 6AL went bad awhile back so it’s...

    Finishing Touches On Sc V2 Install

    Thanks again boys - currently at a truck stop right now with the truck and trailer grabbing some lunch on way to the new tuner. It’s about a 4hr round trip for me but I’m sure it will be worth it if he can get it running right.

    Thanks - it does seem like that could be the reason that it's leaning out but im surprised the tuner would be that oblivious to it.

    Finishing Touches On Sc V2 Install

    I agree - I managed to get the car into another tuner tomorrow at 3:30pm. Apparently one of the best tuners around - he had a cancellation and after I told him the story he said he's very confident it's the tune. If he can tune it as it sits I'll be having a long chat with the previous guy.

    Finishing Touches On Sc V2 Install

    And heres another update - After speaking to another reputable tuner he feels that the problem is somewhere in the tune of the MAF and not my injectors/rails. I actually called this shop to purchase injectors and rails and they talked to me out it which is pretty rare...the parts guy actually...
