Well I've posted on all the other forums because I forgot my user name on here and cant get into that email so finally I gave up and made a new user name. So anyways here is the deal, I've wanted a TII for years, I dont even like FD's etc. my love has always been with the FC's. So I finally got one a couple days ago and its already sittin on the side of the road several miles from my house and I live by myself and just moved so I don't know anyone to really help me. Anyways here's what happened

I go to drive the car and it drives fine (up till around 3,800 RPMs) then it sputters and pops till 7500 RPMs, then it pulls to 8k RPMs like a bat out of hell. So then I drive it normally and then all of a sudden it starts just pouring fuel in so the car is about to die because its flooding it while I am driving it. Soooo then the car dies and I coast off to the side of the road. Then car would almost start then flood, I pulled the plug and burned off all the excess fuel and tried it again, same results over and over. I poured denatured alcohol in trying to start it etc. etc. etc. and I got it to start one time but it schoked itself out and died. Anyways long story short I never got it running, its sitting on the side of the road right now, and I hate the car.


So here is what I think is wrong with the car, I think the secondary injectors are stuck open and pouring to much fuel in so the car is instantly flooding and has no hope of starting.. anyone ever heard of that happening???


Any help would be greatly appreciated! Who knows the car might start now after sitting all night I dunno, I dont have anyway to get to it till my friend gets back in town later today.

Why are you still on the gas if the hesistating at redline???

You do know the stock redline is 7kRPM, so why are you revving it to 8kRPM???

I wouldn't be suprised the motor is dead.

Wow... you effed up, bro. I don't really know what to say on this one, I am a bit of a n00b in "my **** broke because of stupidity" departement.

I hope someone else knows what it is, through. It sounds like you had a moerate problem, and then made it worse then it was by over-revving it.

my bad I ment 6500 RPMs it pulls to 7k. It is throwing to much gas in when the secondary injectors are kicking in and flooding, I am gonna go up there at 6:00 and try and start it, the car has been sitting long enough it should start (it has done this before). I unplugged the secondary injectors last night and am gonna see if that will let it run fine if I keep the car under 3500 RPMS (to drive it home).

But what I am asking and no one has even tried to diagnose my actual problem/question. Could the secondary injectors get stuck open either due to wiring or bad injectors? And if they were stuck open the car would flood on start up like its doing due to to much gas correct??

Yeah, stuck injectors could do that. Or if they're dirty, or the computer is holding them open incorrectly, but most commonly they'll be stuck or dirty.

Thanks for some real advise I appreciate it!

So I am thinking that if I just disconnect the injector clips and it fixes it it is something electrical, and if it doesnt fix it then the injectors are just dirty/stuck open. Correct?
