OK so I set about installing my scatter blanket tonight so I can race this weekend. Take intake elbow off, take TB off then UIM off to secure blanket belts beneath all this. Anyway, put everything back together, and bam, runs like a bag of **** on one rotor. Have checked coils/leads all the injector plugs etc but nothing is working.
Really regretting pulling it apart now! Can anyone offer some insight as to something else to try that may have had somewhat similar probs?

Thanks in advance

 

How do you know it's running on one rotor and not just a vacuum hose or something you didn't put back correctly?

 

Yes you are correct, I do not know that at all and just confirmed it by taking leads of each one. Can NOT find anything that is out of place. It is however spewing out excessive amounts of smoke when started and idling higher than normal but I guess to describe it, sounds like it's bridge ported. *scratches head*

 

Boost does not seem to be registering on PFC other than just saying -10, I must have a line somewhere on wrong or such. Is this line in wrong place here...



Blue line running from boost sensor to the actuator (with zip tie you can just see sticking up), is that wrong place?

 

Yes that is wrong, it goes to a port on the back of intake manifold

 

FFS, I asked THREE people if it was in the right place, to all which said yes, as it was the one I doubted. Anyway, thanks, it runs as per normal except for the add coolant light and buzzer coming on straight away now. Must have knocked a wire, that can wait untill tomorrow night I think.

 

Took me a little bit to learn the diagram but it is a life saver.

 

If your engine runs normal and you do work on it which causes it to run bad; then it has to be you that screwd up something.
The inteligent thing is to go back and verify that EVERYTHING is installed normally.
That what the manuals are for.
SFIDIOT?

 

Not everyone knows EVERYTHING about motors buddy, chill out, don't need to be called an idiot for it. I'm not blaming anyone but myself, everything should have gone where it went, I just messed up one line, and now it's solved. Thanks to people that did help.
I'm used to dealing with old carby motors so slowly learning. Hate taking car to shop and prefer to do it myself, so thanks to the people that helped me solve this. While it was a silly overlook, I won't do it again now

 

No worries some people like to do things themselves and others don't. I work on mine as much as I can until I break something and have to call someone lol.

 

Haha, it's a bit of a worry when 3 people tell you completely the wrong thing :P
I noticed you're from chch, as am I What racing class are you running on saturday?
I tend to do the Motosoc (uni club, but I'm no longer a student) track days, would be good to see another rotor there (makes a nice change from the mitsis and nissans). I can give you a bell the next time they have one if ya want.
