Ok so i just got done putting a NOVI 2000supercharger on my car, and am having major driving issues with it
Just got back from the very short test drive and these were my problems:

-searching for idle when not in gear 400-900 range
-BUCKS A LOT
-can not even get half on it with out it getting choppy and cutting out

any ideas and or help would be greatly appreciated

not positive but im pretty sure its back firing too/ not hitting on all cylinders, Do you think i shoould replace the plugs with a step colder ? and if so what kind and what gap

WHAT KINDA MASS AIR ARE YOU RUNNING??

kweb288

its a 90mm lightning mass air from anderson ford motorsports with the loadio calibrator. It is clibrated for the 19#ers from before.
I pulled the #8 spark plug and the thing was comletely balck, and the hayness book said this is due to oil blow through...... any thoughts?

IF THE PROBLEM IS HAPPENING under load it could have spark blow out, a black sooty color is carbon fouled due to gas not oil, oil burning normally is deposited on the electrode as a ash colored substance

ok so how should i fix this? colder plug with a different gap?

mjr46

if it is spark blow out , run a smaller gap, what gap are you running now??

Could def be the mass air causing problems as well.Gap the plugs at .030 and run 2 steps colder.

ok ya im running a .005 right now.

and why would the mass air cause problems by the way..........

You are probably having an air leak somewhere between the MAF and the throttle body. You need to get your plugs regapped to .028-.032. However this is not causing your poor drive-ability. I had the exact same problem. It turned out there was air leaking aft-the MAF.
