Yes Enki i understand it now, i was just saying what i thought before but I have since learnt that I was wrong

Hey guys, I was going through some videos and this is when I first installed the cpe dp. Do you guys hear the choking at the beginning, I’m not sure if this is helpful?

So my compression is good but I'm just doing this to double check i guess i definitely messed up tho because i assumed that because 1,3 and 2,4 moved together they would both be at Compression stroke TDC together so I didnt move anything just tested 2 then 4. I realize now that only one cylinder...

So if I just use a screw driver, how would I know when it’s on the compression stroke and does that really matter as long as I’m at TDC This would be much easier, the less time outside the better, it’s cold out here

yeah i definitely messed up, I must've been at TDC of the wrong stroke. I had seen that the best way was to connect the gauge and crank the engine until pressure would register indicating the compression stroke, then go until it stops adding pressure and go back a little bit Guess I messed up...

14-18 psi is leaking out, I had 150 psi on my compressor and i was flowing 100psi into the cylinder. i think its good my results were good. The tester is supposed to be higher tho like say it was actually 18%leakdown it should have been at 82psi not 18 psi but maybe this one is just different...

I watched a couple videos of people doing leak down tests with the OTC tester, Im fairly certain I was at TDC, the only time I heard air coming out somewhere was from the intake valve and the psi jumped up to 80 instead of the 14-18psi I was seeing, I wasn't at TDC so i adjusted it and it...

Im a little concerned with my leak down results, i texted my mechanic and he told me that its not 18% leak down its 82%, Because the second gauge was reading between 14-18 psi but I didnt hear air escaping anywhere. On cylinder 3 I didnt have it at TDC and I heard air hissing out of the intake...

I did not realize that, thanks for letting me know ill stop tagging you guys, sorry about that.

So the white ones are lean and dark ones are rich? Ill disconnect the downpipe this weekend

So did the leak down test and I have good news, ranges between 14-18% so my engine isn’t the problem here which is a big relief:) As for spark plugs, I don’t understand what’s going in with mine. The first 2 are white/tan and 3,4 are darker, what would cause this? Is this also a clue to solve...

So im trying to figure it out today, i pulled out the 2 extra bungs in the CPE downpipe and it seems to be a little bit better like it starts to choke up at a slightly higher load. I was also messing around w the MAF and the VTCS and it ended up giving me a p0304 but I didnt do anything...

I have a CPE downpipe thats catted, which was installed in an attempt to fix this problem when it first started. Ill remove the 2 extra bungs that are in the downpipe and see if anything improves. No resonators just a muffler Im starting to think exhaust is unlikely I really need to smoke test...

I looked over the whole intake system, it must be something on the exhaust side

Shit that's a good point lol, what else would cause the engine to choke?

Yeah tomorrow I'm going to disconnect the muffler from the downpipe and see if it changes anything, I have a stock CBE in my garage I could put on, the CPE with the magnaflow is quite loud

So I took my car to the guy that rebuilt our seadoo supercharger this summer he owns a garage and he lives a couple houses down from me. he scanned my car with his fancy fancy snap-on scanner, then test drove it. This is what he said,"Your engine is fine, its not the misfire the problem your...

I just connect my compressor and set it to 100psi right? first gauge shows the actual psi and second gauge shows leak down percentage Do i do it on a hot or cold engine?

i ordered an OTC leak down tester, i wanted to get a good one because my compression tester was cheap and is crap I didnt want to make the same mistake Anyways I no longer need to wait for someone to do it Ill have the results for you guys this weekend latest. hopefully good numbers

On my AP my catalyst is not ready and so is my o2 sensor and they should both be warm. Is this normal? also I’m probably just paranoid but I’m getting a lot of smoke/condensation out of my exhaust I’m not sure which one. it has only started recently and it’s only been cold recently less than...
