  1. ive been checking plugs, their dry like the vavles arent opening properly to let fuel in the motor. thats why the intake gets 1/4in of gas in it.
  2. ok i figured it out thanks. i tried messing with the idle settings and nothing, just cranking and cranking. so monday im gonna bleed the lifters and see what happens.
  3. im running a gm mas air sensor. i will try adjusting the idle settings, but i completely forgot how to work the translator. i remember that the aux doesnt get used and then theirs 4 dials on the bottom which is which and which way is leaner and richer?
  4. i have the translator settings at zero right now so it runs at the stock afr of 10.0. i tried tuning with the translator when the car was running and the numbers were always different like it has a bad mas sensor or translator and at this point im focusing on getting the car to run first. i bought maf translator extensions, could i possibly have them hooked up wrong causing it not to run?
  5. ok i went down to my shop today to check out the lifters. im brand new to overhead cam motors so i had a difficult time finding the lifters as my dad did too. do i have to pull the rocker assembly off ? also how would i go about collapsing the lifters? thanks
  6. yes i checked most main things i could think of. it has good spark, it has fuel and it has air. i havent made it down to my shop to try and collapse the lifters yet but thats what im thinking it is.
  7. we put a timing light on it while cranking and adjusted the timing a little bit. its really close to 10 degrees before top dead center.
  8. ok that makes sense, i will try collapsing the lifters and see what happens. i checked it before and after both times it was 110.
  9. yea i checked it before replacing the timing chain. it had 110 psi on all four cylinders. i dont know if the lifters are hydrolic or not the machine shop did all the head work, im pretty sure they are just stock lifters.
  10. the intercooler piping is all hooked up. the tac moves when cranking, unfortunetly i lost my stock maft! i pulled the injector housing and cranked it while my dad watched the injectors, the primary sprays perfect. with that said should i still look for the ecu not getting a tac signal?
  11. ok so i recently put a new timing chain, gears and all guides ect. had the head freshened up with new vavle job put the motor all back together with new gaskets and it doesnt start. the timing is correct, i have spark, fuel and air. the car will run if your spraying starting fluid into the throttle body with the injectors unplugged. whenever i try to start the car with the injectors plugged in it doesnt fire. i am lost now, i currently have all the nobs on my translator set at zero. if anybody has any ideas or thoughts please chime in i need as much help as possible. thanks
  12. i know ill get jumped on about doing searches , i did search and couldnt find this specific answer im looking for. the modded maf translator plug has 5 prongs to plug into the stock harness, 3 on top and 2 on bottom. the stock harness has 8 slots the prongs can slid into 4 on top 4 on bottom. how do i correcly plug this in? thanks
  13. i know it might not make sense but theres only 4 spots for the 3 pins to plug in and i just need to know which slots they plug into
  14. ok i did a couple searches and couldnt find what i was looking for as always. this might be a noob question but oh well. im installing maft extensions and need to know, the plug that comes off the translator and plugs into the stock harness is the one im having trouble with. the pins on the translator are like this 123 and the stock harness is 1234 12 1234 thats the best example i can come up with, any help would be highly appreciated.
