Default She worked flawlessly tonight!!!!

Think it was the ground to the controller causing the problem, cuz I pulled the old noid apart after putting the new one in and it looked perfect, but all that matters is it worked! This track isn't the best, I was .1 off on my 60', was running 1.40 - 1.42 60's and she went 6.13 @ 114. I only made 2 passes just to make sure all was working, my wideband is still wiggin out and tellin me 9.0 a/f and I didn't get my ottoscope yet to be able to look at the fuel ring w/o cutting open the plug, so I have no idea where the tune is at, so I didn't wanna push it, was just happy it worked and was running pretty good! I pulled a couple plugs and will cut them open tomorrow and put up pics to see what you guys think. I think it needs more timing by the mark if what I think is the mark is the mark, it's showing half way between the bend and the tip. I am also goin up to my buddy's mustang dyno tomorrow and gonna test my wideband against his to see if mine has taken a **** or is reading correctly.

Anyways, here's a vid of the first run that one of my buddies got!

Congrats on getting back in the game.
Shiz certain fuel additives cover the plugs in a rusty looking soot. I bought some of that torco accelerator to try and my plugs went frome bone white to rusty brown.

I would never use an adative. just the right fuel. The q16 makes the strap look like straw though . very hard to read a timming mark.

Agreed, This winter I am planning on going from the 1/3 e85 that I have been running to all e-85 in the main tank. I bought a plate and I am going to put my stand alone back in. I still havent decided what to use in it I was thinking 118 NOS or C23 or VP import. I figure Ill break in my new motor with the e85 and my current dry kit but only a 150 shot, After I get it shaken out I can hit it with another 150 on the plate. That Q16 soulds like a pain in the *** keeping it from evaporating.
