Fuel Pressure dropping on Boost

[Arctic Thunder]

Man I hate these types of gremlins! Glad you found something wrong finally!

I had an instance last year where I though stator was out too, got new one and tested the same as well. Turned out it was ecu. Such a PITA!

Ouch, I will take my nickle connector any day over a ECU.

I went ahead and ordered a new capacitor from Shain tonight. I am not 100% certain that mine is still good. I need this thing to run by Wednesday next week. So to make sure, the only thing I have left is the Capacitor. So another $30 and I have a another spare.

Holding fuel pressure now!!!!

A stupid wire connector. Spent eight hours in the shop. Pulled reeds, checked every component of the fuel system, pump, pickup pucks, external regulator, etc. Pulled the stator, purchase a new stator only to find it Ohmed out exactly like the one I took out (I have one for sale ) power to pump, voltage to pump was good at idle.

Again found one bad connector to the 56000 farad capacitor. So the voltage wasn't stable, and I needed the capacity to boost my fuel pump when pulling hard. (Thanks to Shain Stanger for the hours on the phone trouble shooting)

I say BS!!!! We have bonded to the point that I put it in the swap meet section. LOL


No it's a great sled, when you have a mod sled you expect a few things. And really I haven't had to much trouble. Just little stuff.

But I am kind of thinking a pour in the oil, top off the fuel and pull the rope sled could be fun.
