Hey fellas,
I have a 91 Galant VR4 with a running issue.
It has a 1G 7 bolt and it hasn't run much in the last year. I've slowly been working on it and I'm almost done, but need a little help.
I've recently upgraded to 750cc injectors, 3G MAS, and Keydiver chip with proper compensation for said parts. I also installed an Aeromotove FPR as well.
I just got the ECU hooked up after installing the chip and fired it up. Car idles like a champ rock solid at 950rpm. No stumbles, burbles, or misses. When I touch the gas the knock counter boost gauge pegs and the car dies.
I called a buddy in CO, and he helped me narrow it down to the MAF(I think). I can unplug the MAF and it won't idle but it revs fine. No misses.
I recently bought a different adapter harness to replace one I had that might have been suspect with no change.
I don't have a logger, as my palm batteries died and I can't upload anything to it as I just bought a house and everything I own is in cardboard boxes. I'd love to fix the Galant and start to daily it, so I can sell my VW and put that cash into my house. I just need a kind soul to help me with this small issue.
If someone could help me, I'd happily provide gas money and dinner on me. The car is in Prior Lake. It's at a fully appointed, heated shop. As I'm currently using my iPhone and this site is very slow, contacting me through email is faster. I'll still check here, although not as often. CarRacer AT Gmail DOT COM is my address.
Many thanks for reading and hopefully you guys can drop some knowledge bombs and get me pointed in the right direction.
