302 FI Supercharged Problems-Cobra No GO
Hey all,
We are currently working on the motor in our cobra and having some problems that I thought I would ask about, and see if anyone had any ideas. First off, we are running a Fuel Injected 302 out of a 89 cobra mustang, with a 6.0 lb powerdyne supercharger, and a ford racing wiring harness. The car has been running until recently when something went to crap. The car now starts and runs about thirty seconds and dies. It does sound like the computer is trying to adjust the engine to run better, but it still cuts out and dies. Holding the throttle open will get the engine to wrap up, but it still ends up dying in about the same amount of time. We have tried a mapp sensor, but it still does the same thing. We thought it might be a fuel pressure regulator, or a faulty fuel pump. The pump runs, but it had a crack in it that we epxoyd shut. Maybe it is sucking air, and after it runs so long it starves the fuel out? It ran for a couple of years that way though. We put our snapon scan tool on the scan port and it goes blank so thats no help there. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
There's nothing worse than a cobra that won't run!
