Thread: Ported TB Issue

I went ahead and purchased the ZZP PTB. Well I followed the instructions and went out for a ride and all went well. A few hours later I jumped in my car to bring a movie back and it starts "wiggin out" and died on me. Now the car will only idle nice when the engine is cool and once it warms up after about a min the idle starts to roll and it get so bad she dies. I disconected the battery and waited to try to reset the PCM several time. I tried it screen and de-screened. I also played with the bump stop screw that controls the TB blade position. I put the stocker back on it it purrs like a kitten. What gives?? Maybe the ZZP 1.0 Tune?? Is it tuned for a stock TB?? mods are below.

3"DP w/ high flow cat

You might have a leak somewhere...either that or a bad sensor? idk thats odd...go figure...its ZZP too, thats problem #1

^^This is exactly how my bad maf showed up, one day it just started running crappy when warm..... cold engine ran fine, when moving it was ok, but idle or light - medium throttle was horrible, sometimes stalling.........

And unplugging it didn't help, If you can find a local with a good working MAF, that is the best way to test

Yep, could've gotten a bad MAF from ZZP. Or, the IAC could be bad. I'd say swap over all the electronics from your old one (I did that anyway, so I knew the history).

well I emailed them again with no luck

OK i got a repsonse from ZZP today and this is what they said. Keep in mind I copied and pasted my 1st post in this thread directly in the email I sent them.

Quote from ZZP Customer Service Below

"The 1.0 PCM is not meant for a car with a cam. Is it our basic 1.0 flash?"

OK that tells me why there is a problem but what is the solution? It would have been nice for them to offer me a few option.

Alright things are looking up now. The Owner Zoomer has contacted me and we have a plan for action. I have to send in my pcm and stage I TB. They will be reflashing my PCM and sending me a stage II for a bit more cash.
