Hard Starts

[gomer23]

Well tonight I finally got my fluids and everything fixed tonight, and started the car a few times. It starts but takes 2-4 cranks for get it to stay running. Now my IC piping isnt hooked up yet, so maybe I am jumping the gun on this but is there anything that might cause it to take a few times to start?

so your ic piping isnt hooked up at all????

[eh?]

Hook up your piping :p

The person doing the welding hasnt finished it yet.....and it hasnt run long with out it, just mearly to test for any leaks. But since that is taken care of the IC piping will be done tomorrow

you don't need to hook up your piping...i've seen countless "start up" videos where there's NO intercooler piping hooked up intake is open and turbo is open and they start up after a few cranks...so i dont think you're jumpin the gun

[krayton]

yeah, but hes wondering why its not starting up right away....

hes jumping the gun into trying to fix that problem (if it is a problem) since he doesnt even have his ic piping done.

lol hook your piping up

eithre that, or put your MAF on the pipe that goes to the TB. your confusing the ECU thats why its struggling to start.

Fair enough haha. See I figured I was worring over nothing. I have been getting kinda paranoid about stuff working on the final stretch here.
