A little bummed today :(
« on: September 16, 2002, 11:55:08 AM »
My boss got some new DTA systems in(stand alone engine control units) last week. Any rate..I have been pondering this for quite some time now since it cost\'s about $1300. Well, he decided to let me install it and I just pay some now..some later..etc. I start prepping all of the wires, sensors and connections to connect with a stock wire harness.

Well fast forward to today, I got on the dyno and started to tune the damn thing. Well..turns out I leaned the fuel out just a tad too much and now cylinders 2 and 3 are TOAST!(for the 3rd time)I did EVERYTHING in small increments and I have a built bottom end, so Im not really sure what has gone wrong as of yet. I only tore down the top half just to check if it was the pistons or not. Guess Ill find out more within the week.

I just basically wanted to vent somewhere.

Any donations are appreciated :D (j/k)

Yep, just have to produce the 1.1 gigawatts of power to use it.

Does anyone know where to get the plutonium?

Well if it is your fault, just blame it on the car, that\'s what all great mechanics do.  Then charge yourself extra!
