some ill sh!t

[david_shea]

omg im about to ******* kill somebody right now! i have my engine put together in florida by my brothers friend, pistons rods blah blah. well ran good down there then i trailered it up here to wyoming. well i have no power and there is oil leaking and a blown turbo, thats just the beginning. ive been troubleshooting the no power since i got a new turbo and the oil leaks fixed up. sooooo i have a weird feeling so i went to check to see if my emanage was even on or if a wire came out or whatever. well....the ******* emanage isnt even there or the wiring, ive basically been up at 6000 feet running on my stock ecu with no tune and running richer than hugh hefner. omg!! i just figured i would vent to you guys im going to judo class now to **** somebody up.. oh yeah on top of that since the wiring is gone i have to do them over with the ecu wiring diagram again, holy s***! and the guy is nowhere to be found.

Could you have test-driven before paying him?

wow. bummer, eh? Hopefully you can find someone local to fix the set up.

Running too rich is just dirty and expensive. If it ran LEAN at max rpm - zoomzoomBoom.

So hey, it ain't blown. 'Nothing money can't fix'. Some of life's lessons are more expensive than others. You can submit a bill to him for the additional work to be done and request paymant. Accpet anything in a negotiation (through your brother). Right now you have no real claim to anything if the guy is just some dude running a service for you (not a business...).

Did you pay by credit card - challenge the payment throuh the card (if possible - don't wait).

How much money are we talking about?

Lastly, don't let it eat you up. Deep breath. good. Forgive him and move on...

ya, rich is safe...lean is kaboom! your piggy is providing you extra fuel to go with all that extra air...so unless i'm missing something you are running mad lean not rich??? what do i know, no one has ever mistaken me for corkey bell!!!!

 

[david_shea]

well what makes sense to me was that i was running really rich at sea level and now im up here and it runs like s***. it ran fine down there and when i got up here i was lost to where all my power went. so i got a shop up here that is going to hook me up hopefully
