I drove maybe 3 miles from home under normal driving. My car started running rough and sputtering so I pulled over and turned the car off. I noticed somehow my meth pump just was running non stop so I pulled the wires but it literally emptied my 2.5 gallon tank.

I couldn't get the car to turn over so I had it towed home.

This was 100% meth so no water in it. I took my spark plugs out cus I read you can do that and turn the car over to have it flush the fluid out. When I did this it started spitting the meth out I could see it spraying out the spark plug holes.

If it was hydrolocked would the car have even been able to do that? Or do u think Im ok and I can make it shoot it out and maybe let it sit a day and dry out.

 

if it was still running it didnt hydrolock. if it hydro-locked when running it would have stopped the engine dead. what more than likely happened is it was burning the meth when running, and when you shut it off it kept pumping and filled the intake manifold up till it started filling the cylinders

clear the motor out, if it pumped that much meth in pull the blower off and figure out how to empty the manifold out (wet/dry vac?) and let it dry out. crank it with the plugs out and clear the cylinders out. put a fresh set of plugs in. im sure it will be just fine.

 

forgot to mention I'm turbo so its a log style inatke mani but don't think that makes a diff. What you said is making me feel better tho cus ya it didn't stop on me or make any bad motor sounds like grinding etc...and I sat for a min or so and was like something is still running and saw it was the meth pump in the trunk

is it safe to do the no spark plug thing a few times? I've done it a couple just dunno how many times is enough. the first time was like a water fountain tho lol.

 

Ya you won't hurt anything. Pull the plugs and crank it till she's dry. Moral of the story, always run a pressure switch and led light when running meth haha.

 

^^^ damn u .. u beat me to it....

 

ya the jerk offs that installed it put it in my fuse box in the engine bay.

I got the car running and it idled rough for a few seconds and it idles fine now. I drove it just a little and it was fine till I went to get into boost. It started to break up around 5psi so i didnt push it. Could this be because there is still meth in the manifold it was strange when I poped the hood there was some condinsation on the manifold it self and when I got close to the motor the fumes hurt my eyes...seem like there is some meth still burning somewhere?

 

Get new plugs

 

Could be knocking like crazy if its tuned for meth and you're running without it..lol

 

well the good news is your engine isnt dead. lol.

 

Thats what I was going to say, if you're tuned for meth then you get into boost it will do that. The car is looking for the meth and you aren't giving it any.....it needs the 100% good ****!!

 

Condensation on the mani could be from all that meth evaporating, made the mani cold and water condensed on the outside.

 

I have easy access to my pump wires with a LED in the car that lights up when it's spraying, if need be, in an emergency, i can cut the wire with my gerber that's always in my car.

 

ty for the replys guys. Im hoping its the tune and the not getting meth that is causing it to buck and not build boost. Cus ya I just got it tuned to a T for 100% meth a few days earlier and it ran like a champ..no knock and perfect afr. I went to reconnect it but the moment I touched the wires the pump started running so something is causing it.

I'm ok to drive as long as I don't build boost tho right? I want to take my car some where else and have them re wire the meth kit. I need to go at least 70 on the highway for a little bit of the commute.

 

you better change the oil in it first

 

Yeah. Damn.

 

plugs and oil?

if I change the oil should I just put some seafoam in it anyway? or did the meth act like the seafoam would have lol

 

bump

turned out to be a shot in the wire. Where they put the wires through the trunk to run under the car had rubbed through. Patched it up and it works. not sure about my float sensor tho cus that wire got caught in the steering so that patched that up too.

Noe on the devils own controller the light blinks for the one that says full. I dunno if that it normal or if it blinks when its low. Right now my tank is full.

 

You might have the float in upside down. It isn't supposed to be on until it gets low or is empty. Easy way to check is by looking at the float and there should be an arrow, check the directions to see what way it say the arrow should point because I forget but mine was in wrong at first.
