Running extremely rich and already burnt plugs twice!
 
Some one help me. I have a Nitrous Works wet kit with the following


Tuning by Jayson(MTI) with 24 degrees of timing and Im running EXTREMELY rich

Vortex Fuel Pump

MSD WIndow S. 3 and 6

I just dont know what is going on. The first time this happened my car burnt a valve bc it hit the limiter, SOLUTION: MSD window switch, pulled back timing and Richened it up Max.

Now it has happened again. I disinegrated 2 spark plugs AGAIN.

150 Shot of Juice. Wich is equivelent to probably a 120 TNT.

Someone suggested something is wrong with the Fuel Solenoid? :cry:

is it the same cylinders that are always burning up? What did your a/f say on the dyno? Could the fuel solenoid be operating intermitantly? You are obviously going lean and/or detonating in those cylinders.

I would run some race gas if you are going to continue to trouble shoot your system until it is resolved.

Ditto with 383, rich smuts up the plugs, which nitrous is really good at cleanign them.. Lean however fries 'em. What kind of plugs you running? using a 150shot, you need a colder plug, and then the right gap as well.

NGK TR6's gapped at 40. Yes its the same cylinders that are burning up, not sure on my AF.

Anyway I have decided to go all motor so MTI tuned my car all motor. I would like to know what the problem was. Ill ask MTI what my AF ratio was though...
