As I mentioned last week I bought a 89 Shelby Daytona TII. The car is exactly what I wanted.
So I drove the car a "got on it" a little and it stalled. I checked for fuel, Good. I checked for spark, looked weak and no spark at the plugs. So I changed the computer to one that I had and changed the rotor and it started right up. The rotor had a burn mark from an arc inside.
Without sounding to dumb,Here are my questions:
1. There is a manual Boost Control Valve and a BOV both TURBO XS. How do I know if they are set correctly? On my other Daytona's I was able to bring the boost and the RPM's all the way up. The way the engine is set up now it feels the engine cuts out and the BOV opens. The engine had mild performance cam (thats what the old owner said). I have the roller cam in case I want to put it back in.
2. There is also an air/fuel LED only display inside the car. One wire from a black box goes to the MAP sensor and the other wire goes to the O2 sensor. I know the three colors Red, Yellow, and green mean Rich, Lean and Ok. I cannot find any literature on this. I think it also has to do with the engine cutting out earlier. Also, can I chenge the LED to a LED Gauge?
3. There is also a MAP BY PASS adjustible switch (I think) installed because there is an informational sheet in the folder with the car. I am not sure about this.
I am not to good with the perfomance stuff so I need your help to figure it all out. So all comments are welcome!
Thanks all.....
