ICP pressure/hard starts w/video

[anmetcalf]

I have a hard start hot that I am tracing down. I did a air test today without cycling the ICP and did hear a fair amount of air leaking on the right/passenger bank when I took the oil fill cap off and stuck a tube down it. I also heard a little down by the HPOP, but not much there.

Anyway I am going to be taking off the valve covers soon, and will recheck the air test. I believe I have a bad o-ring on the top of an injector. I just replaced the stand pipes and dummy tubes not too long ago.

So here is what I have a question about I noticed today that when I'm driving and running about 2000 rpms that I am around the 1300 psi area but when I get on it that number drops. I got 2 videos of this today. If you watch the videos the ICP pressure is on the left of the CTS and the ICP voltage is on the right. Watch the numbers as I accelerate hardish. What is causing this?

anyone have any ideas?

need to see what the ICP is hot cranking hard start

Bueller, Bueller, anyone


No one else has any insight?

I would get the engine warm and pull the valve covers, crank the engine and look for oil leaks. I have a 03 but pretty much the same hp oil system check out the thread in my signature.

Here is a short video of the NO start hot.

did you do the stc fitting on the hpop

STC was done about a year and a half ago.

Injector o rings maybe? I would pull the valve covers when it is hot and see if you can see one leaking.

I believe it is an injector O-ring. But I didn't think that an o-ring along would show me such loss of pressure at the ICP sensor under hard accelerations. My belief now is that it is an o-ring on the passenger side. Thus cutting the amount of pressure the ICP sensor sees.

My dilemma now is that I have a bad injector/s and want to know which one before I open her up so that I'm not opening, closing, then opening.
