Only 1 Rotor running

hi there,
i just bought a 88' TII which is running very sick. First i do was changing the plug wires and spark plugs. The Engine put out on errorcode that there is a Problem with the Boost Sensor. I found a Boost Cut Controller which was at the ECU. I cut it off and the turbo came up. I cut the Leading Plug wires from the Coils while the engine is running and it seems that rotor 1 is not running. It smells like gas a lot when the engine is running. Idle is at aprox. 1.500rpm. The engine is brand new and has 3.000km, is streetported and it seems that the car has an upgraded BNR Turbo and a remapped ECU. The one rotor revs nice up to higher rpm's without problems. While driving the car it won't rev above 3.500rpm.

Next step i want to test is compression and injectors. Any other ideas ?

Thank you !


THUNEON

i pulled out the leading plugs to listen to the "psst". It looks like the compression is okay. I have a very loud, fast and steady "psst psst psst psst". I started the car again and on WOT the engine stopped.

step 1... run compression test and check for vacuum leaks

step 2... check timing/ also is CAS need to be re aligned/stabbed

step 3... check plugs and replace with new ones

step 4...check fuel injectors they could be leaking or even stuck open/or closed

step 5... fuel pressure check
