Hey guys so to start the story I crashed my car 8 months ago, just got it running again as of 2 weeks ago, had to figure out a bunch of issues getting it started but finally all was good. Except I kept popping into limp mode, I drove it 200 miles home in limp and well I've been taking it to school every day like this. Sometimes if im lucky i can turn the car off and come back in 15 minutes or so and manage to do a pull (which it runs flawlessly outside of limp mode) to clear the engine out some. Just trying to figure out what is causing this,, I thought I had my omp wired wrong because since the accident the 6 pin connector broke so I had the pins on there wrong trying to hook it up, got the pins on there correctly.. no change. Last night I tried a friends omp because I figured I may have fried mine.. Sadly to no avail. What's next? If I step on the gas hard at all it cuts out completely (cuts fuel I believe), if i go above 21% throttle or so it leans out to 15.5-16.5. Runs fine, idles fine. Has a knightsports 4beat ecu with a greddy emanage ultimate on top. My maf was also bad (found no resistance between E2 ground and THa (thermo sensor) so my friend lent me a cosmo maf (n390) and well it works, and I dont think it would cause my car to cut out if I got on it.
Is my ecu fried? I'd like to think not because it lets me boost sometimes, but maybe thats just until it does its thing and gets a code sent for the omp.
Is my tps out of whack? I have a friends im going to try this weekend but not expecting anything miraculous.
Fuel pump going dead and only lets me do a pull when the rail is freshly pressurized? i really doubt this but i've had pretty similar issues on my old S4 when the gas tank was filled with rust.
I've changed the fuel filter, I have no vacuum leaks at all
