e6k startup question
 

Everytime I try to start the car after sitting overnight, the first time I crank it, it doesn't try to start, it just spins the engine like there is no fuel or spark. Then i crank it a second time and everything works like it should.

battery drain? i found out the hard way if the battery isnt up to PAR (healthy) the haltech wont kick on and dump fuel into the motor. just a thought.

It still cranks fast not like a low battery, brand new optima battery with an fd alternator charging around 14.8.

haha i've had this issue a lot with fc's and e6k's. bump up the primer map in the colder section and make sure you let the fuel pump prime before turning it over.

it's really not a big deal. worst case just turn it over real quick, and then do it again and it will catch.

i've also had this issue with AEM ems as well.

Yea i've tried turning the key acouple of times to make sure the fuel pressure was up, and my guage is always around 45 after turning the key the first time and the injector ms are kicking around like 5 something while cranking. I'll try the primer map though.

5ms during cranking??

I have to look again, but that was the guess, mainly I was just making sure it wasn't 0ms which means its not the fuel part.I could crank it the first time till the battery dies and it would sound like its not even sparking. But the second time or the rest of the day it starts just fine.

assuming its a bridge...whats an average for a bridge? or street port????

Late entry, but I did bump up the primer map and its working like a charm.

do you remeber where there sitting at (primer MAP)?

Ill have to check, but I bumped it up about twice what it was and evened it out every morning till it was just right.

what size primaries u using?

1000cc prim and secondary.
