Thumbs down wow. i need some help...

okay, so i just but on an aeromotive 13109 to replace a broken FPR. also i had to go back to my 550 secondaries because the front 950cc injector was stuck open. so thinking that this would cure my problems, i tried starting the car. its a hassle but i can get it to start. but its still running rich. really rich. i have alot of smoke coming from the turbo. and it smells real bad. and then there are the clouds of blue/black smoke from the exhaust.

anyway, i didnt have a fuel pressure gauge fitting to fit the 1/8th plug on the aeromotive but it should be on the lower setting. which is 40psi (minimum adjustable) also, it will stall if i dont keep the throttle. on top of that, its backfires, afterburns and stumbles alot. then i did this harcore misfire type thing...no matter how much throttle i gave it, it just would kinda ignite in a constant rythem. now, i have set the timing, the tps, and have new plugs.

so any ideas?

um... blue/black smoke? sounds like a coolant leak, might need a rebuild.

coolant is white and it smells like carbon burngin. not a sweet smell at all!

the motor was rebuilt 700ish miles ago. compression is good and if i crank with the plugs out (like to deflood) no fluids come out.

Aruba27flr - Blue smoke is oil seals, wite smoke is coolant and it smells sweet.

Low Impedance - Man I hate to hear it is still giving your probs bud :-(
I may be off my rocker here but if it is possible that it is the ECU, or still a injector issue. If you have or can get a hold of any other injectors I would try them to, perhaps unhook your secondary altogether if maybe the ECU is skewed and running them at idle to.
