Re: Full throttle boost problems
why would you even think of going boost without upgrading your fuel system, your motor will not last much longer. u need this
hondata
255LPH walboro fuel pump
310cc injectors
FPR
fuel rail

Re: Full throttle boost problems
Honestly, First thing you NEED to do. Walk out side go to your garage, Get a socket wrench, your spark plug socket, and A extenion. After having all these wonderful great to own tools walk to your car, unlock the car and then reach down and pop the hood. After the hood is poped and you walk over and open the hood. Start by removing all the spark plug wires, but make sure not to get those mixed up because you dont want to start the car with the wrong fireing order when you put everything back together. Here is everything you NEED to know about spark plugs
Breakage: Sooty appearance, missing or damage components of the spark plug
Caused by thermal expansion/contraction of the insulator - Typically due to thermal shock (the sudden increase or decrease in temperature)
Sudden decreases in temperature can most commonly be coincided with entering a large pool of water while the engine is hot, or a broken water jacket for liquid-cooled engines.
Detonation: silver or black specs, melting or breakage at the firing tip
Caused by improper timing
Lean air/fuel mixture can aggravate this condition
Overheated: White, Blistered, Melted Electrode
Lean air/fuel mixture
Spark plug heat range is too hot for operating condition of the engine
Plug is not properly gapped and/or torqued onto head
Overly advanced timing
Excess Deposits: Bumpy, Chalky Buildup
Poor fuel quality
Oil leakage into combustion chamber
Improper oil used for premix/injected
Wet Fouling: Shiny, Wet, Black Appearance
Excessive use of the choke (gas fouled)
Prolonged low rpm operation (gas or oil fouled)
Fuel to oil ratio is too rich (oil fouled)
Dry Fouling: Black Soot Buildup
Air/fuel mixture is too rich, the carburetor settings are incorrect, or the flame arrestor is dirty or has mounting problems.
Spark plug heat range is too cold for the operating conditions.
Ignition system problems causing a weak or intermittent spark.
Normal: Grey to Light Golden-Brown Color
This condition is ideal, the spark plug and engine air/fuel mixture are operating properly.
