Hmm, do you have a fuel pressure gauge by chance to monitor?

I have one but its not long enough to see it while driving
I did jumper the relay with a wire and watched the gauge for a few mins
Then started it
watching it while reving it
and its holding pressure still now off not running

I think I found the problem );

Bingo, that's an easy fix.

There is a tool for putting a lip on the end of that tube that fell out. That should hold it better.
You did a great job on that extra idler bracket, it looks awesome.

I went around the tube with a small crescent wrench and made a lip then sanded it smooth
That should fix it

Still hard to start takes 3-4 tries

Still very hard to start takes 3-4 tries then starts rough then smooth out
Normal start after that

Since you are running with high fuel pressure, have you tried cycling the ignition 2-3 times before turning the engine over? Does it do this on cold starts only?

I have tried cycling the key .
Yes only on the first start.

He told me to do a idle adjustment
And make sure I get the tps to .96-98 I did that to.
I charged the battery

It will now idle at 700 with the iac unplugged
But once you plug the iac in it will drop to normal

But the first start is still bad I mean it stalls out
Kinda like a vacuum leak
Then the computer just smooths out
If it don't stall first

But I can't find any problems on my end

He told me to turn it off till the end then we tune the meth

my bad

 

[donalds]

my bad

Its funny I thought the same and then reminded him
So I'm not sure what he is up to but whatever it is its definitely showing

 

[CDW6212R]

That sounds smart, he is trying to see what the engine will do with and without the meth. That will help him set the tune conservative enough, that hopefully if the meth quits unexpectedly, it won't run too lean right then. That's my guess.
