sorry guys i couldnt make it......im having some issues with smokie jr. it seems like im running on one rotor but the funny thing is that it has great compression on both housings it has spark i checked the fi's i even changed the wires on them and it still seems to be doing the same thing so i guess all thats left is to check my fuel lines my fuel filter and change my wires and see what that does.........if you guys have any ideas what else it could be let me know....ill also look in my fsm and see what i can find but i hate that im missing the meet i know its not the same with out me lol naw i miss u guys and i cant wait to get back to the meets

How are the spark plugs? When mine were fouled, the engine felt like it ran on one rotor.

Check the ECU by maybe swapping it with another one.
From a lot of write-ups about turbo swaps, I've heard about this being a problem.
Just throwing a guy a freakin' bone here.

i did check the spark plugs and they were a little foul but i cleaned them with a wire bursh and they were giving out good spark so im thinking its the wires i havnet changed the wires since i had the car and i dont think the owner did either but im not sure so i think im going to buy spark plugs and wires and see what that do

Hey don't **** of my n/a she may eat yours! You know it feels about turbo FCs. The meet was awesome but we still need to get our numbers up. those 8 guys are still overruling us. to the new guys that showed up good meeting you guys hope to see you at more meets.

The next meet is on the 4th so i'll see everyone then Happy Holidays from me and my FC.

P.s. thanks for the beer dave!

:AA:

no its not clearing up and we checked the injectors there fine i dont think im getting spark so im going to change my wires and my plugs and possible my coils because i have great spark on the back rotors but weak spark on the front so it could be my coils but im going to change my plugs and wires on monday and if thats not it then im going to look into my fuel

Check the ECU
If you did get the ecu second hand from a swap, it could be it.
See if someone can let you try one of theirs out.
