regular old m60 swap

[dothadance]

Been driving it around the block, hitting little snags here and there. But today was the big day, cars and coffee at COTA. Sure enough, more snags. Developed an intermittent misfire and a fuel leak yesterday. Got the fuel sorted out easily, but the misfire not so much. Started her up this morning. Drove it around the block and decided it was driving well enough to head out there.



This was the first meet my car has been to in over 3 years. And if you refer back to my very first post I went with my best friend and inspiration of this build.

Sure enough on my drive home, I started leaking a good amount of oil. Havent poked under there yet but it's quite a bit of oil.

Had a hunch as to where I was leaking. Sure enough, oil leak located.

Apparently my dumbass installed the mount without any orings.

Idk what that red shit is. No more leak as far as I can tell.


Misfire isn't nearly as bad. Stomp test works on this new ecu, code 1222. Have a pretty bad exhaust leak at my driver side vband. Will be remedying this weekend.

F**k that stupid oil block. worst idea ever.
the oiling system on these motors is so annoying

Forgot to take pictures, but my exhaust leak is fixed. Driver side vband mates perfectly now, the exhaust flange had warped so we took a belt sander to it. Worked like a charm. Still have a misfire tho [emoji19]. Only code is 1222, still haven't done any poking around.

Having these exact problems.

Seeing as I plan on getting a tune anyway, it's worth a shot.

Do you guys have a manual ECU?

The only CEL i have right now is 1263, purge valve. ive put in several different resistor values and It hasn't gone away. Manual DME, m60. The car drives fine so far, other than running at 15:1.

I have no idea if mine is or not, but I have 2 spare ecus and they all react the same way. Car runs well in open loop, then runs weirdly in closed loop. Going to test misc sensors later today. (cam/crank/o2s) tps sensor is good.

10$ says theyre all auto chips. you can replace just the eeprom chip in the ECU with a manual one, or a tuned chip.

Why fuck around, just get a SSSquid tune and know your ECU/chip are good.

Doing a little driving, still haven't done any poking around. car makes a fluttering whistle noise on acceleration, im assuming its a vacuum or exhaust leak.

Stiill waiting on my markd chip. I've emailed him a few times now to no avail....

[dothadance]

A month later. Still no chip, extremely dissapointed with my experience with markd.

I suggest SSSquid. Very responsive communications.

Got the chip installed yesterday. The car fucking rips, but it's absolutely ridiculous that it took over a month to get to me.

which problems did the chip fix, specifically?
