Ok my CA18 has right at 850 miles on the rebuild. I was driving it on my way home from work one night and it overboosted from 10psi to 14-15psi. was around 6500rpm when it happened. shifted to third kind fell on its face for a second then it was fine. got home and it wouldnt idle. next day it wouldnt start. changed plugs and they were fouled. starts up and will idle fine for 5 to 10 minutes then fouls them again. check all ic piping and from what i can tell no vac leaks. passed compression and leak down test a week before.
