Anti-seize is awesome. Get the brand-name stuff. FWIW, I use it on every suspension and chassis nut and bolt I touch.

Let's see if that works...

 

[Saleen S281]

Ok, got the tool in Monday, had a family emergency and couldn't work on it till today.So far so good, I was able to get the tip out, and just replaced the broken plug with my new one. Prayed and started the car, and it started but it was very rough, had to feather it to keep it running, got it warm, shut it off and surprisingly, the rest of the plugs broke loose 1/8th of a turn, sprayed them with deep creep... I'll let them soak overnight and try to get them off tomorrow, hope no more break.

 

[JeremyH]

Good news, good luck on the the rest of the plugs!

 

[Saleen S281]

Thanks Jeremy, got very lucky, the rest came out! . Woke up and worked them all back and forth, all came out. Now I just need to put the new plugs in and hopefully get the first log done.

 

[Saleen S281]

The tips are basically gone, I did a rough estimate of the gap and its around 55-60, no wonder it ran really rough. I have a turkey to smoke tomorrow, so maybe I can install the new plugs in and go from there. Looks like they were the original plugs too.

 

[Saleen S281]

New plugs are in, car runs much better, said wth and tried to do a log, I've been unsuccessful in the past not getting everything to communicate. Actually worked, got two logs, sent then to Lito and left to work. There's a problem though, not getting a maf count, i thought maybe it was the extended harness to the ba2800, but all the connections are good. While logging, i unplugged the mafs, hooked up the factory mafs, blew in it, still nothing, plugged in the ba5k still nothing. Lito its sending me another config file tomorrow, so hopefully its something simple. The saga continues...

^^^^^ does the link work for ya?

 

[mikeyfitz]

You're using a firewire cable to the X3 right? Did you wire it correctly?

 

[Saleen S281]

I'm using the trick tuners wideband cable to the xcal2, printer cable to the lap top and plugged in to the usb port. Nothing i had to rewire. I'll double check alp the connections tomorrow, this is starting to get old...

 

[mikeyfitz]

Damn, then I can offer no help. I don't know anything about the xcal 2.

 

[Saleen S281]

Thanks anyways Mike, if i run the car long enough, i get an engine code p0113, which i think goes along with the maf signal not coming in. The code is a high iat volt reading.
