Yet another wont start thread... sorry

To preface this.. the car ran last week, it actually ran well. I took the IC pipe off and accidentally tried starting the car. Anyway, i went to start it today and finally got it started and running (with about 15% throttle). I shut the car off after running for 1 min or so to check to see if i had missed anything under the hood to cause it to require so much throttle to idle. Everything looked ok so i tried to restart it and nothing. Cranked it a couple of times and then I pulled the plugs. The leadings looked ok but the trailings were dripping wet. I switched out the plugs to a old set and a got a few sputters out of it and then nothing. pulled the plugs again and the trailings were wet again. wiped it off and reinstalled. Yanked out my CAS and restabbed it. MY origonal ignition settings were trigger angle at 80 and tooth offset at 9. I tried doing the standard 65 and 11 but again nothign. Tried 80 and 9 and still nothign. I checked to make sure the coils have power and it was ok.

Here is a link to my map if you would like to look at it

The setup is a Haltech E8 on a hbp s5 tii with stock ignition. Plugs are bur9eq all around.


Thanks in advance

I tried again today to get it started. i cleaned off/changed to an old set of plugs. kept flooding/not igniting etc. Finally on the 3rd set of plugs i got it to start. It ran quite well. I put on my origonal bp map and rezerod the timing. I could shut the car off and start it pretty easily, only took a 2 seconds or so for it to start when it was warm. I shut the car down for an hour and tried to restart it. nothing. i got one good kaboom out to the tailpipe and nothing else. Pulled the plugs and they were wet. Im not sure what the deal is...

here is the link to this version of my map

Also, since i run a wideband for my closed loop o2, what afr should i be running at idle? I have it at 13 right now with a maximum correction of +-10% up to 3500 rpms. I have not ran the 3d target afr map yet. I have gotten it to idle at 14. I havent tried going higher than that b.c people claim that the 13b wont idle at stoch.
