well i'm te starter of the cam and intake swap thread and today she has risin form a week of sleep...

lots of issues to be cleared up yet but i got her stared...

dist was 180 out (of course) and i needed to advance it to get it started..


some leakes at the manifold plugs, idle sounds good, i'm thinking i need to check the lash on my rockers.

ses light flashes rapidly (wondering if i installed chip wrong)


all in all everything sounds ok want to thank all who helped with advice and ideas!

 

Hey congrats. I would re-adjust the rockers while the car is running if you had previously adjusted them when the engine was off. Where did you get your chip again from? You may need to put the stocker back in to see if the ses light goes off.

 

i got a chip from pcm for less and the car runs like i said but I get the flashing ses light and when i checked the codes I get 51 prom error?

thats not good is it

 

I would put the stock prom back in and go from there. Make sure it is seated correctly.

 

sounds like my next step!

 

Putting the chip in upside down can fry it I made that mistake.
(This caused the engine light to flash rapidly. It stopped when
I flipped it over, but the car ran like crap)

It gave me an excuse to pick up a new ECM ($70 at the auto parts store) and a chip from Fastchip.com (I wasn't about to risk frying the new chip)

 

the plastic adapter thing has two sides with thick pieces and thin ones so i'm preetty sure i put it in the right direction maybe not firmly... i'll have to check it out... i sure hope i didnt fry mine!!

 

car runs pretty good seems to have a tine valve click... but the chip i got it no good

high idle which i'm gunna try to solve tomorrow but really cant do much till i get new chip

i'm gunna lower the fuel pressure and check the idle air control

at 5am yuck
