Well I finished everything today. 450cc dsm w/ smc500, walbro 255lph pump, 10watt 10ohm resistors, d16y7 block. When I go to crank it just keeps turning over but doesnt catch. Pulling the plugs revealed that they were covered in gas. So somehow I flooded I guess. Settings were -35 across the board. What should I check?

way too rich, flooded your engine, and washed your cylinders/rings=no compression now. pull your plugs and let cylinders dry out for a day or so and get new plugs. drip about a tsp of oil down each plug hole to recoat pistons/cylinders to regain compression. set your low throttle settings to -47 or -46. -47 correction will=approx 238cc inj and -46=appox 243cc inj. use this at least for 1k rpm. don't need much fuel to start the car.

btw...when you start the car after doing this it will smoke like a ****. hopefully your car isn't in a garage, or if it is make sure you have a fan handy to blow out the smoke...cough-cough.

So what should I use for my idle/running settings?

PS. I need to get this started tomorrow. Car has to be out of the garage I am using.

you know what happened?

ok first, 450cc gives rich with SMC settings at -35... ok.. thats' one thing.. and when you "primed" your turbo with oil, you should have pulled the INJECTOR FUSE as well, i know you pull the spark wires but you were still sending huge amounts of fuel... you forgot to pull the injectors

Should I be running much leaner settings than most of you guys since I have a bigger fuel pump? Or does it not matter. I dunno seems like its just a constant fuel bath.

Could someone tell me a little more about priming your turbo for the first time? Do you guys just leave the oil feed line off until you see oil come out of it?

sounds like you don't have spark for some reason.. Did you do anything with the spark plug wires or the ignition sistem? With no spark your plugs will be wet when you pull them out. And its not gonna mess up the cylnder walls that fast. Cylnder wash is something that happens while a car is running and up to temp.. Not while its cranking over and cold.

Nothing in the ignition has been changed, double checked wires on both ends, and changed, checked plugs. I dont know. :\ But I'm really running outta time.
