I don't own anything besides a very basic tool kit and analog volt meter, nor have any money to invest in a scanner. i've only been through the basics, fuel, vac, and timing.

The temp gauge starts moving at a normal time (5-10min) but it's well after reaching warm that the car snaps out of it and starts running better. The CTS sensor and the turbo coolant feed lines were...

Hey all. I ended up with Mario03SRT's old daytona. It's currently running stage 5, with all the associated mods to support it, and then some lol. When it runs right, it's a monster. Just getting...

Would you consider an 8 valve Spirit? 188k. Rebuilt garrett turbo (7k), rebuilt head (1k), 2.5in exhaust, FMIC, newer rod and main bearings (20k) clutch has 20-30k. Interior 7/10. Body's 7/10. ...

That's what i thought. Well if nothing else i admit i was wrong. I was sure it wasn't a fuel issue. It's just part of being inexperienced and stubborn.

So i'm an idiot and should have listened more. Fuel pressure was 9 psi. There's a new pump in it now and it's running quite fine now. It sputters and is lacking power. Fuel pressure is fine now. ...

Alright. I have two non running cars and I need a daily driver.

So I'm having to put up my 1991 Dodge spirit ES
Car is almost absolutely rust free, besides some flaking right above the gas...

I know. It's a real shame. I think I have it narrowed down. I'm going to play with it some more tomorrow.

While playing with some wires and rigging up grounds for the fuel rail and passenger side motor mount it seemed to actually fix itself, and actually started running properly. But when I backtracked...

It seemed to have ran good for a second, then realizing it's mistake decided to go right back to being broken.

So there is nothing in my wiring harness to suggest there was ever a ground on the fuel rail. There is however a black ground wire located on the firewall where the intake ground goes. I'm gonna...

Yeah I'm equally surprised. I've seen alot of headscratchers under this hood, and mounted on top of it.

I could probably guarantee it too. I replaced the intake ground. I can't find where to ground from the passenger side engine. It was suggested to me I run a ground from the negative battery...

alright well i inspected the engine grounds just to find that all of them are gone. At the firewall, i found the remnants of a braided ground that goes to the intake manifold, and a black ground...

Baro solenoid has been bypassed for some time now.

I will get back as soon as I am able to obtain a fuel pressure testing kit. Unless I hear back from my school I have no way to test the fuel pressure.

And not to argue, but one of the things that...

Today just for shits and giggles i put in a known working map sensor i had kicking around. No change at all

I did notice though between 3/16th throttle and 11/16th throttle, the car just shuts...

I changed the coolant temperature sensor. No change at all. Still no codes. Timing is fine.

If this helps, here's how the car deteriorated since putting it back together

Day 1 afternoon....

I usually don't get a check engine light or any codes at all. It's worth a try definitely.

Pretty sure the one from the passenger motor mount to the frame is gone. If it's one of those braided steel lines. It ripped off when my alternator belt shredded. I keep forgetting to replace it,...

at idle i pull about 20 in hg.

Ignition timing looked fine, as did cam timing. I'll double check it but i think it's good.

i know that's not the best video to hear what the car's doing but does anybody have anything? i'm seriously about to part this mfer out.

Here's the video from my second test run today. I got no codes this time around. This was with the stage 3 computer back in place.
