Hi everyone, I am just getting into tuning and HP Tuners, and I'm working on getting my new build tuned and having some issues with it not wanting to start (at all) when it gets hot. I've been pouring over posts and forums and tutorials for the past few weeks or so and just can't seem to find anything that corrects this issue. It's preventing me from VE tuning because if it dies, I'm stuck on the side of the road somewhere for a few hours until it cools off...
so some details about what I'm working with:
1999 Trans Am, Stock bottom end/heads/intake LS1 with a Sloppy Stage 2 cam (228/230 duration @ .050? with .585?/.585? lift and 112 LSA)
SEP 1000 Injectors (i have the injector data from SEP already in the tune)
3 bar MAP and OS
GT45 turbo
IAT sensor in open air (haven't drilled the hole for it yet)
Innovative SCG-1 wideband with output going to the AC Pressure sensor for scanning
4l80e tranny, need to tune for that at some point...
if I start it up dead cold (well...in 90* weather lately) it starts and idles fine, once it gets hot it starts stumbling a little here and there but no major surges so far. I can drive it, even come to a stop and it just stumbles a bit (if it gets too out of whack it tries to die when coming to a stop)
if I shut it down hot then immediately restart, sometimes it will fire OK...rough but it will start. Sometimes it won't...
if I wait for any amount of time, it won't fire no matter what I do. It may catch and spin up to ~350rpm or so for a second but it will die, it will not stay running
what I've done so far:
enabled OL SD/killed MAF, turned off STFT and LTFT, idle @900rpm
basic "get it running in SD mode with a cam" VE and spark changes, bumped up idle spark
drilled larger hole in the TB
turned down the idle over and underspeed spark
set cranking spark to 12* above 122*
bumped up my idle startup initial airflow to 12g/s abov 122*
turned off idle proportional (not sure if this was a good idea...)
set my min fuel MG down to .008 under transient at the recommendation of some folks
bumped up Friction airflow, halved decay and bumped up delay
bumped up idle airflow initial, halved decay and bumped up delay
adjusted cranking VE down to try to somewhat match where my non-tuned VE tables are
tuned my BRAF with Russk's sheet (even though VE isn't right...)
even messed with the FA Multiplier tables...
nothing has helped. it still won't start when its hot no matter what I do, even pushing AFR and timing changes in bi-directional it refuses to start. I'm lost at this point, has anyone run into something like this before, or do I just have things too far out of whack to make it happy at high temps?
I've attached my tune as well as my cold and hot startup logs in hopes someone may be able to steer me in the right direction...thanks for anyone that can help!!
