Okay, I have some tuning questions and I figured it might help so folks here if you are a tuning noob like me. First off - Hot start issues. It starts great during a cold start or even kinda warmed up starts (maybe 2 cranks to start). However, when its hot and I shut it off, then try to restart...

My handheld doesn't seem to have those variables avail. (dTPS) in the Accel Pump section. Is it hidden somewhere (I checked all the settings to see if it was avail. elsewhere)? Or perhaps I don't have some advanced tuning option checked? I put about 100 miles on the combo. It drives really well.

Tech question, I have it up and running - finished all the wire tidying up, and wired up the electric fan control. I'm running a locked MSD Dizzy, timing control through the FiTech (20 degree's of advance at idle) and the FCC for fuel (solid fuel pressure from the mechanical pump and the FCC)...

Started right up!!!! Runs great. Can't wait to get the wiring tidied up and take it out for a spin. :burnout:

Rebooted and all is well. Had a loose fuel line so I sprayed gas everywhere - so I'll let it dry up and try again tomorrow. Thanks for the input :)

So I have it all hooked up and ready to roll - using an MSD 2 wire dizzy - locked and the FiTech for timing control. Logged into the handheld and tried the initial setup. It allows me to change engine parameters, and says it saves the info, but when I query what is saved to the ECU the numbers...

Already broke in the cam with the previous crappy TBI. Installed a new distributor and got rid of the HEI GM stuff as well after the cam was broken in. I have an MSD adjustable rotor on the way so I should be able to fiddle with it and get things squared away.

So I'm almost ready to fire it all up (still need to drop the tank to get rid of the bad in tank pump and replace the sender with the old style). Question for everyone (and Johnny :)), This is a new engine install that ran with a really badly done used GM TBI setup. I removed all that, put in...

Here is the FCC mounted.

The CJ FiTech system is starting to come together. I had to fabricate and weld up a bracket for the FCC. More to come :) I've got the 2 wire MSD Dizzy locked out and ready for the FiTech to control ignition. I'm interested to see how it works. I will also be controlling and electric radiator...

Just a plug here for JohnnyMac and Pace and a thank you to the community. I just ordered up a FiTech 600 and a Fuel Commander and Johnny has been great with info and support. I navigated and joined here because of this great thread about the FiTech system. Sadly I don't have an A-body install to...
