Starts up then begins to run rough and dies
Went to take Z out yesterday for a quick run. It had been out a few days prior w a datalogging session. No problems. I have an Ostrich 2 emulator in the car. New bin, car wouldn’t start. Re-load, same issue. Replace Ostrich w flash prom, car starts using previous bin file but get a Code 41. Flash prom w new bin, car starts but begins to run rough then dies. No code.
I check FP, static w ignition ON jumps to 50psi then drops to 40. Nothing changed except for loading new bin in Ostrich. With the new build, I’ve been working on refining VE table as well as setting timing now that I don’t have knock. Car has been running great. New bins flash SES w ignition ON as they should. ECM flashes Code 12 when in ALDL as it should. Also compared the bin files and nothing appears out of whack from one cal to the other. My suspicion is fuel pump. Discuss.

Re: Starts up then begins to run rough and dies
How long does it run before it goes rough and dies? What does the fuel pressure do it you pull the vacuum line on the regulator?

Haven’t pulled the vacuum line. Haven’t checked fuel pressure w motor running. Need 90* elbow to get to rail pressure fitting for that. I hear pumps with ignition ON.

Re: Starts up then begins to run rough and dies
I would test to eliminate the fuel pumps and filter first. Go from there. Especially since no codes are shown.

Re: Starts up then begins to run rough and dies
Any chance the IAC is sticking at some point?

Re: Starts up then begins to run rough and dies
K got it. I think the ports on my laptop are going bad. Not downloading bin files properly. Reloaded Ostrich w different cable and motor was fine. Also checked w flashprom and that worked.
Laptop not recognizing USB devices on the ports I am using.

Re: Starts up then begins to run rough and dies
A netbook would be fine. The bin file is 32k.
