If yall don't agree with this, then just move on. No need to hijack the op's thread by debating it.

 

Dude i'm not debating anything. I'm trying to understand your reasoning and learn something new. If what you are saying is true, I didn't know that. Just trying to understand why that might be the case.

Sorry to the OP if he is offended in any way.

 

my maf is connected. always was. just the map was disconnected. but i cant say that over the last year laying around, being moved and bumped around the MAF didnt get damaged. so lets say the MAF is damaged then with the MAP unplugged the engine wouldnt start. if i hold the throttle and wrap on it the engine runs great. i just dont want to break my new engine in at 3000 rpm's.

if you guys want to debate on my thread have at it. im honestly reading all the input and learning about tuning as i go.

 

The MAP shouldn't be too important for idle fuel calculations but I can't say for sure. I'm guessing your VE table numbers are too low and it's running too lean at idle. Either that or your injector numbers are off.

 

i messaged wheatley to ask him about the map and fuel tables on initial start up. honestly i think that since the PCM has never been calibrated for that engine and the map is unplugged that it is not allowing the pcm to calibrate.

 

confirmed by wheatley that my stalling issue is because the map is not connected. i must have both hooked up and working to get the engine to stay running

 

When are you going to add the plug?

 

i get paid friday so ill do it when i get home from work

 

man, after all the speed bumps you've ran into with this project i really can't wait to hear about it running smoothly so you can start having fun with it

 

tell me about it. it sounds amazing now. im just not comfy keeping an engine at 2500 and up on the first start up. but i do have one last project and thats hooking up the e-fan harness to the pcm so i can do that today. i will post video of it running once i figure out how. i think i can upload to youtube and then link it here right?
