I have a 2000 LS1 that I transplanted with PRC 2.5, MS3 cam, vic jr. intake and stock TB & MAF.
The car starts only when I open up the throttle and when it starts it runs like crap. If I give any throttle at all it bogs and dies, it will not recover unless I start it again. If I slowly give it gas it will rev up some but just runs terrible.
The headers discolored within 20 seconds which to me is WAY lean or WAY rich or the timing is retarded. There is no smoke so I dont thinks it's rich and the exhaust does not burn my eyes so I dont think it's lean so it leads me to believe the timing is retarded.
Without being able to put a timing light on, how do I determine if the timing is messed up?
Would the crank sensor or cam sensor be out of sync? There are no codes set but P1637 and I have no altenator so that's to be expected.
Any PID's that I should log to help find out what the problem is?
Thanks,
Lee
