Motors hurt...

So today I ran a compression test on all cylinders and all fo that actually checked out. All were within 10psi of each other so I know the motor is fine. Now the blower is making wierd noises so I don't know whats going on there.

We have actually at this point determined that it is a fuel delivery issue. The loud pop I heard and why the motor has been running like crap 50% of the time is something in the fuel system just isn't keeping up when I rev the car. After I rev it hard the motor comes down and runs like ****. If you start it back up immediately and try to run it it just dies and won't stay running. BUT if I shut it down, then cycle the key on and off a few times (to let the fuel pump load and build pressure again) the car idles like a dream and runs fine as long as I don't rev it hard.

does the gt have a fuel rail pressure sensor like the 32v's do?

[ASUSMC]

Yep and the car showed no codes

hmmm....seems to me thats what the car would do if that sucker popped. but i would call the guys at psr first and ask thier .02....

What are you running for a fuel system? Which pump and injectors are you running?

Update. Knew this a couple days ago but it never dawned on me to post it. Broke part of the piston on driver side front off. Apparently it shot out the exhaust. I still have compression in that cylinder and the car runs fine. So I'm driving it until it finally pops completely.

I need a fuel system and may just leave the one I have in there until I too can find that extra cash to get the complete return fuel system w dual pumps.

Were you rnning the factory pump and 19# injectors? That's pretty scary.

If so then I can guarantee that's why your motor is done for.
