Wont start after vortech install
After installing my vortech kit my car wont start.
It will crank but wont start up. I can hear the pump turn on and there's gas in lines. (I depressed the valve on the fuel rails and gas came out)
Cant figure out why it wont start
I dont have a tune for it yet but that shouldnt stop it from starting right?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Okay, So I eventually got it to start by holding the throttle open but it idled really rough (Like it had a big cam and would stall if i didnt hold it open) than it started smoking so I shut it off...
What would be causing this?
Too much fuel? Miss firing?
Lack of proper tune?
All of the above? haha

You need a tune, your a/f ratio is ****ED.
It was to my understanding that Vortech kits came with supplied tune to get the car driveable?
What size MAF and injectors do you have installed?
ps: where abouts in alberta ya from? I just moved back to Ontario from Edmonton about 11 months ago

It comes with a voucher for a tune but you have to send the ecu to them and they'll tune it and send it back. I was just planning on going straight for a dyno tune.
Using the stock MAF and I believe they're 38# injectors? Whichever comes with the kit.
I think I may of broken something when I put the fuel pump in because my gauge is saying its below empty even-though I just put 20L in...

ALright what u broke is your fuel sending unit which is that levr u prolly bent. But that wont effect the actual pump.
You need to get a different maf...at least a lightning maf...your going to peg the **** outta that stock maf real quick.
If it were me id just tow it to the dyno...then u dont have to worry about fkn ur **** up
