Title says it all, almost. My car starts first time immediately when it's cold. When it's hot it cranks for a lot longer. Too long. I have tried adding and removing fuel from the cranking setup. A tuner I spoke to told me to watch what cell it is using when I turn the key and add heaps of fuel there. There is as much fuel as I can add in the first 4 cells of the fuel map and no better. I haven't changed the voltage on the fuel pump yet. Ideas?

Mine is does it consistently. Could it be because of having 9xxcc injectors? The latency time is not far from stock. 0.58ms Although it does start fine every time when its cold. Could it be coils? Most of the time it starts with a miss for about 2 seconds. There are new properly gapped plugs in it.

Cos I have to let the O2 sensor warm up I tried something different. I let it warm up on accessories and then when its ready I turn the key to on. then start the car halfway through the prime and it starts first time. It must have been losing pressure in the rail cos it primed then didn't get started till the sensor was warm 15 seconds later.

Are u talking about the wideband? U dont have to let

It warm up. Start the car then plug it in.

It says in the instructions to turn on the power to the wideband and when the light stops flashing to start it. This is to let the heater in the sensor warm up and stop the sensor getting clogged with soot. They say it prolongs sensor life. Everything about the wideband gauge is soldered in. There is no plugging in. Have a look in the wideband thread. I put a clip in there explaining about how it works.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
