When you removed the plugs are you sure you wired the plugs up correctly? I swear my car did that same exact shit when i first did my turbo build and like a jack ass i crossed 2 of the plug wires. Afr was lean, rich, blah blah blah all over the place. That ticking is from the cylnders not firing correctly. Good luck
Is the fuel pump stock?
7g for life!
yeah, i marked all wires before removing them. The same issue was happing before the swap of plugs.

Maybe u have a bad coil. Good luck man.
I been thinking its the coilpacks, im trying to locate some which I can test. I remember alot of user's had issues with emange +coilpacks frying, which i never did. But maybe now that might be the issue. Been running the same coilpacks for 90K miles, +2yrs of boost

Maybe its time to go Evo 8 ECU. I have a spare on sitting on my desk right now you can have for free. (just kidding Jesus!!) It belongs to galantfan88. lol[/QUOTE]
HAHA I just saw this right now, your to damn funny Aaron.lol
I would deff look at the coil packs bc thats a pretty good amount of miles on the coil packs and 2 years of boost...yeah I would look at the coil packs one of them might be fried. I may be wrong but dosnt hurt.

shoot me a call or a pm and if you want them ill give you a good deal

16:1 afr is scary-death for a f/i car man. but that's lean, i would be more worried about the fuel system/tuning than ignition at this point. rich will bog & flood & die, but usually not enough to actually hydrolock and cause damage, super lean conditions, however, blow sh*t up on a regular basis...
love to get an update on what really happened?
The car is still down, waiting on receiving my new coilpacks. I doubt its a tuneing issue, either fuel or ignition. The car ran great on this current tune for 2+ years with no issues with lean/rich, and just suddenly last month i experienced few backfire's and then this whole stuttering issue happened where car cant be driven. Hopefully its an simple fix *fingers crossed* maybe when you TGC nyc guys stop down for eastcoast mod, you can swing by its 30 mins from my house?

Had to replace battery since it drained, thanks optima for the 3yr warranty!
Started car, AFR=16.0 and sounds like a tractor still. I just dont get it arghh! Would bad fuel cause this problem?

Ron can you take some video of it, or anything with sound? How does it sound if you rev it a little to lets say like 2,000?
It could be bad fuel, if you can drain the fuel great, if not, I would go to a speedshop or local track and get like 5 gallons of 100 or 110 and mix it in, that might help it a bit if the old gas has alot of moisture.

wait it sounds like a tractor? have you check to see if your sparking on all your plugs cause our engine sounds like a tractor or lawnmower when it runs on 2-3 cylinders when my ecu fried it sound like a lawnmower cause i was only running 2 cylinder cause the black/blue ignition wire from ecu pin 11 was feeding 5v even though the wire is supposed to be a ground check the black/blue and the white blue wires from your coil packs to make sure they are grounding properly if your not sparking on a few if your sparking then check your injectors maybe your only getting fuel to a few cylinders or a bit less in one or 2 causing leaner overall conditions i had one of my injector seals get screwed up on me and my egt skyrocketed. and it wasnt a big leak either.

Hey Brian, i will try to get a clip this week. Best i could describe it under 2K is like its on maybe 2-3 cylinders.
Reikets- Thats sounds just about right to whats going on. I never checked voltage, im guessing a standard volt meter is all i need?

yea if you put the power to the larger wire(power wire) and ground it out to both the other 2 it should read around 11.2-12.whatever XD. make sure the key is in the on position when you do this or it work read anything.if either of them show like a 5.5ish number your prolly having the same problem I did.
