This was taken at 1400 RPM.

As you can see I have big time problem's. I need some HELP!!

It is funny. On my home from LA. Everything was fine when we left. But when we stopped for a pee break. That's when everything started to go haywire. My car was throwing codes and running really rough. Almost like I was not firing on all cylinders. Then after I started going again and cold air was flowing through the motor it was ok??? I am thinking it is an ignition problem??
This crap all started after I changed my plugs from TR-55 to TR-6.
Now I really don't think changing plugs can do all that.

Thanks Jason

Well those are all even # cylinders and the O2 codes are because of the misfires. I would guess unplugged coil harness to get that many misfires.

I hate to see these crap posts. If you really need help like it seems, then pick up the phone and call Mike Morgan or go back and visit him at his shop. The last place he'll look is here - you'll get much better luck trying to get him directly. All this type of post serves to do is make people think his service or product is bad and causes problems which is normally not the case. Guys like Mike Morgan help pay for this site and develop new LS1 products and refine old products, this post is a waste unless you are looking for our help - in which case we need more information on what work was done.

It sounds like the same problem you had when you brought it to us. Is it still popping through the exhaust?? I'd guess a bent valve.

I don't know what to tell you. I'd guess it was related to the boost you are running. It might of hung a valve open or something.

It's really tough to say since we haven't done any of the work on it. I'm sure if we had the time we'd get it all sorted out. Let us know once you get the blower back from Vortech. We can then figure out your other problems and get to the fun part, the actual tuning. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Thinking a bit more,
check any grounds that you may have disconnected. Also make sure that your O2's are hooked up properly. But the more I think about it, the more it seems like a ground. Check the wiring behind the cylinder head.

Alright, then why didn't you help me out. The reason I posted that is because he responded to my other post and plus I posted thisfter coming back from his place. Which it takes 3 hours one way to get there. My car was there for tuning, but I had other problems which were not his fault. So, I figured let's see if he will read my post and reply. Which he did. If he did not want to respond he does not have to.

So, if you are done acting like a little bitch and still want to help me out I would appricate it if not then why are you wasting your time and everyone elses who has to read your negative crap.

Thanks for the help mike.

Jason

I agree slamming people is not the answer.I don't understand one thing about people like MitchR. They post to bitch about the post, but provide no help. Why would you reply and not try to help? But to put down the person who is looking for help. The heading looking for one certain person doesn't mean he is the only one that needs to reply. If people have some sort of help to give. Then give it.

I did not word my post like this on the other boards, because I knew mike goes on on this board. I talked to him earlier that day. Seemed like a nice person. So, I put the post up.

Yes, I am just VERY frustated with my car.

superchargedz,

Take it easy there pal ! I've read and replied to many posts on this board and others for the last couple years and am only negative in about 1% of them and it is normally due to my perception of anothers negativity.

That said, I was trying to defend Mike Morgan and all sponsors before I knew all the details - I'll be more careful next time.

Secondly, Your post made it seem like you just wanted to be pissy with a vendor/sponsor and didn't want real help. We can only give you help if you give some information and details as to what is going on.

I thought I was helping you with some common sense. You gave me little info to work on other than you were just at Mike Morgans shop and you car was running like crap. So instead of doing what any rational person with common sense would do and CALL or Drive back to Mike's Shop, you post the message. It was fortunate that Mike was reading through the board and happened to see it.

I sincerely hope your car is running better, I know that I hate it when mine is not running right.

Mike Morgan: Thanks for the comprehensive details of what happened !

Good Luck,
Mitch R.

[quote]Alright, then why didn't you help me out. <hr></blockquote>You told the LS1tech community about the codes your car had set, and that these had happened on your way home from MMS. Based on the information YOU provided, it was VERY misleading. I'm sure most readers of your post wondered what work MMS had done to your car.... From Mike's response they apparently did nothing. Give us the full scoop when looking for help. If MMS (or any other shop) had done the work, the best way to get a resolution is to call THEM or email THEM, since they know what's going on.

[quote]So, if you are done acting like a little bitch and still want to help me out I would appricate it if not then why are you wasting your time and everyone elses who has to read your negative crap.<hr></blockquote>Apparently you're not looking for any help on this board in the future. We all know how frusterating it can be when your car isn't running right. Slamming other people isn't going to get you anywhere here. Providing detailed info so others can help problem solve will.
