i have added this thread sevelar times allready and no one is helping me, does anyone care about their fc brothers. my problem is my fuel computer went haywire and turned the injectoers on, not for a single pulse but constantly spraying and this flooded my engine i have an 88 gxl and i just rebuilt the engine months ago and the car was running super great BUT no the car doesnt have but about 45 pounds of compression to the front rotor. i changed the computer and that solved the injector problem and when i add some atf the compression goes up high enough to get it to almost start and once that is burnt out it falls down again to low compression. what can i do to bring life back to my car and please please dont tell me that it needs to be rebuilt. thanks for your help.

If you don't put any info in your thread title, some people won't bother to see what it's about. They just think it's some helpless crybaby that can't do anything. Next time put in a description of your problem.

Wish I could help, but I don't know the answer to your problem.

 

If the car was running fine before the bad flooding I don't see why it would need to be taken apart again. Are your injectors leaking? If not then I would put a 50:1 ratio of premix in the tank for a while to see if it helps out the seals.

 

maybe the omp isn't working? i'd try the premix.

 

If you are only getting 45lbs of compression after adding atf and doing the unflooding procedure, you may have bad/broken apex or side seals.

Also, a descriptive thread title will help a lot to get a response. 'please help me!!!' tells me nothing.

 

my car flooded due to bad computer, now the car only has 45lbs compression when i put some atf in the rotor housing it jumps to almost 100lbs of comp. but it still wont start. i replaced the computer and now it isnt flooding like it was but it still wont start what can i do?

Put in pre-mix. Make sure you are getting fuel and spark.

 

ive got all the neccecities to get the engine running but the low compression is killing me. i am going to try some premix a 50/1 ratio and see if that helps me out. also someone told me to squirt a bunch of atf in the rotor housings and let it sit for about a week or 2 and see what it does. he said that i probably washed the apex seals out and they need to swell back up and the atf should do the trick especially since they are only a coulpe months old
