Fix 1 problem..created much more..hlep please getting tired of it.
Well i had fuel problems..sent my injectors to RC engineering..2 is fine 2 is dripping..
then..while i was waitting for my injectors to comeback..
i took my UIM apart and clean..that include the TPS.
put all of them back together install with the new rebuilt injectors. start..no leaks..good.
Then it will not idle..that's right it idle @ 2500rpm..(with my foot on gas lower than that it will stall and die!!)
and hesiatate a whole lot,no boost ( actualy boost come on..car shake~~~ foot of gas..)(turbo seems to be spooling all the time..BOV doesn't work..temp is regular.
drove it for about 25mins, then shut off..smoke comes out smell like coolant ( didn't worry about it..boy was i wrong,) pop up the hood and cooland is shooting out from a leaky hose on the UIM..but i figure easy fix..
sundenly!!!FIRE!!!!, yes it got on fire!!!!WTF!!!( not from the leak coolant. but right above the turbo @ the down pipe)
luckilyl i have water on hand so it didn't get to be bad
as soon as it start it was over!!
can it be the TPS!!??? i think i have to reset the TPS.
but when i was warming the car there is no more fuel leak what can be happening???
it's dark now..so i can't do nothing..but i'm daze and confuse..it's one thing after another..have this car for almost a year..dump all kind of $ to it..and never get to drive it...maybe it's time to let go..will check on it tomorrow early..if i can't fix it..i don't even wanna think about it...help please..

PULSATION DAMPER!!??? ok i'm new to that, can anybody explain why maybe it MAY come from there??
And RC engineering include the performance sheet of the injectors B4 and after they clean..but maybe..
again..TPS...i think it what causing the rough idle.
anybody else can explain why?? and how to reset TPS?? thanks

may be you installed you injectors incorrectly and have a gap inthe seals and have a fuel leak and a vacuum leak in the injector area.
check for vacum leaks and look for any leakage of fuel or oil arond the turbo area cause oil would smoke if ti came into contact with a really hot surface like a turbo.
