jdm conversion,ecu problems
Ive been working on my car for quite some time now, and since ive swapped to a turbo motor my rx7 hasnt been able to start. It cranks over revs up to about 2 grand then shuts off. The jdm ecu that i bought was tuned by blitz access. Could it be that the tuned ecu is causing the fuel to shut off because of the FCD. Any help would gladly be excepted. thanks

remeber that the JDM ECU and engine do not come with AWS (accelareted warmup system). i have done the swap and also have a Tuned ECU. hold the gas down for about 20sec or so after the car starts. it should hold its idle just fine afterwards. you will need to warm the car up yourself.

That would only be required if the thermowax has been removed from the TB.

AFM is common sense. i figured if he did a swap, he would already know about this and maybe there was another prob.
