Installed Meth...no difference? - SRT Forums

SRToad4 · 10-18-2009, 05:33 PM

So I received my meth kit on saturday, and installed it same day. After running all the wires, I went ahead and primed the pump by the instructions. Everything sprayed, and I hooked it back up to the car and went for a drive. Normally, I run around 21-22psi on 91 pump and get around 5-6KR based on temp outside.

3rd gear pulls showed about the same as I've been seing, 3.5kr starting out, rising to 5.5-6kr by redline. Basically no difference in KR as of so far.

Is there any reason that it could not be spraying? I have the boost port running off a tee between my bov/throttle body spacer. Is it not seeing correct boost there?

Any help would be great.

Thanks!

Also, I'm using "Heet" from walmart, because the nearest meth is about 35 minutes away. I mixed it with a bit of water. However, the amount of fluid in there is barely filling the bottom portion of the trunkmount. Could I be not spraying because there's not enough fluid?

That would be my guess.

Idk though, when I primed the system it sprayed great. After I primed the system, I added a bit of water, and another bottle of Heet. Just doesn't make sense, I thought with spray, it'd drop from 5-6kr down to 0 with ease.

I would also say start filling it to the top..remember when you drive that S**T sloshes around

ya, I'm about to run up to Autozone and pick up some -20 windshield washer fluid...with my 5 bottles of Heet already in the system, the -20 washer fluid will bring it down to a 50/50 water/meth mix. I will see what happens when the system is completely full.

What kit do you have?

SRToad4 · 10-18-2009, 06:16 PM

Coolingmist Standard Trunkmount Kit

toad, I didnt notice a difference either, except I break up a lil bit at top end, get tuned for the meth buddy!

maybe undo your line from the nozzle and tape it do the bumper or somewhere you will be able to see it spraying outside! haha thats what I am going to do.

Run more meth.. Try STRAIGHT HEET. Also be sure to reset your PCM then try a run.

Man watch out for that washer fluid. When I used it it would always clog my injector because there is soap in it. I only use VP M1 now.

Coolingmist · 10-18-2009, 07:44 PM

fill the tank up, if the tank level is low the system will not inject consistently. Try this for a bit and see if the level has changed. From there we can figure this out.

I had anywhere from 5-7kr. Installed a basic coolingmist kit running washer fluid and it went to 0kr. something isnt working properly. Whats your setup? what nozzle?

I richened up the s-afc a bit, and now I'm breaking up pretty bad up top, with kr going as high as 8 during a pull. I filled the tank up with 5 bottles of heet, and 3/4 of the way up with washer fluid. Should be approximately a 50/50 mix. I am clueless as to what is happening!!
