Was wondering if one of you guys could give me a hand tuning my car before I chunk a piston or something. That definitly wouldnt be a good thing. |

How long ago did you get the DHP pcm? Have you checked for any misfires while scanning? What size pulley is on it now? What type of plugs and wires? _________________ Sgt at Arms - Council of Elders

running really really lean.
fueling issue somewhere.
either fuel filter or pcm programming.
was the fuel filter actually replaced during the tune up??
maybe time for motorvac as well? |

Had it for about 2 months now. Bought it used from a member of regalgs.org and he said he had it for a couple of years. No misfires, 3.4 pulley, stock replacement wires and 103 plugs. Gas filter was replaced at the same time as the rest of the stuff. |

Hey Keith...Have you checked the fuel pressure at all? Soething is definetely odd here...the scans show lean lean lean, and far too much boost for a 3.4. No codes at all? What are the IAC's (and what is your idle set to)
Also, can you post a scan of just normal driving along with a wot run to 90 or so? This just cannot be a WOT thing, there is something else going on... |

Mod List:
3.4 pulley, 103 plugs, 180 t-stat, DHP v1.0, 3" d/p w/ high flow cat., res. delete, gutted stock air box, trans. cooler, thrasher shift kit(set to #2)
I'm affrad to do anymore runs with the car because of the way its running presantly. Definitly running bad all through out the whole range of throttle. I'll get the fuel pressure checked today. You want it checked at idle or at wot?
I'm thinking of putting the stock pcm back in, what do you guys think? |

Keith my man, let me tell you from experience DO NOT DO ANY MORE RUNS!!!!!
I was trying to diagnose that same problem and on my last "run" to see if it was ok I chucked a piston.
My problem was a lean condition caused by a crap fram fuel filter that had pin hiles in it.
Change the fuel filter, put in 104's, or better yet slap that 3.8 back on with stock plugs. Scan and then go from there. I wish I did.

I'm affrad I might of did some damage on the scans I posted. Car did something weird I never felt. Hope it was nothing. I don't have my puller yet so I'm stuck with mine 3.4. I put the 103's in just to be on the safe side. I'll change the filter again, maybe I got a bad one out of the box. I'll have to borrow a puller until I get mine. Thanks Carl |

Just replaced the MAF and put the IAC sensor back in the stock location hoping the hotter temps will pull a little timing out of the pcm. After doing this the car is running a little better but I havent scaned it yet. The MAF definitly was probably on its way out and it wasnt dirty at all. Going to check the fuel pressure this weekend sometime. Still what to see if someone can help me get this car tuned a little better. |

Did you turn TCS off? I had a similar problem and it turned out to be the TCS activating at WOT and my engine would sputter and O2's would not stay high, they would decrease. Turn your TCS off and give a couple WOT runs. _________________ Red 1998 GTP w Dual Black Racing Stripes and Lund hood scoopes.
