A bunch of people running the same car as me ran with the 12cyl/12inj fine, including myself for 5 months. It is not masking a tach problem, it simply corrects for the tach signal being 3 times what it should be.jonfx4com wrote:I think if your running it with 12 cylinders and 12 injectors configured to mask a tach problem you better fix that one first or you are just pis$#@g into the wind.
What firmware are you using on the MS1, I cant open the MSQ file.

saturnsc!,
It sounds to me like you have a short in your injector wiring. Does MegaSquirt work normally on the stim? Have you connected a test lamp across the injector connectors to see if the injectors are firing full time?
Are your cranking pulse widths tuned to your engine (i.e., not copied from someone else's set-up)? You really do need to tune these to YOUR enigne, this is very important.
Another less likely possibility is that the fuel pressure regulator diaphragm has ruptured, allowing fuel directly into the manifold from the fuel rail.
And make sure you pull the plugs and allow them to dry completely before trying again after flooding an engine, as an engine usually will not start if the plugs are wet with fuel (and it will seem as if you aren't getting spark, but too much fuel).
