Default Any FAST EFI 2.0 experts out there!!!!!

We're having a problem keeping the car idling .It will run a little bit and die . Went through every single wire and sensor . The fast CS is a joke . If some has any ideas please let us know we're at wits end with this!

How long does it run - a few seconds, a minute?

You've probably already checked, but does it keep fuel pressure after it starts? Is it keeping consistent spark as it lights?

Another thing which can do this is having the base fuel map way off - if it is way rich or lean (usually rich) the engine will die as it transitions from startup fueling. Just go in and decrease the whole map by like 40% and see what happens, and try increasing instead if that doesn't work.

Thanx for the info! There taking it out of the car as we speak its GARBAGE!!!!!!!! The customer service is horrible !!! When the ''TECH'' tells you he has to ''TAP OUT'' meaning he has no answer for what the problem is !!!!! It's time to move forward with a different system I'm going with HOLLEY.

Wow, sorry to hear that Mario. Hopefully FAST is at least taking the system back. "Tapping out" is definitely not something you want to hear from tech support.

Quick update.... Fast did give me my money back on the 2.0 system. The Holley system is getting installed as we speak.

If you go off the interwebz (whatever that's worth), it seems about a 50/50 shot at service with FAST.
The magazine write-ups seem to have no problem getting tech help. Same with the big name builders.

Ya it got to be a joke ! almost 7 days of calls . The ''TECH'' swore up n down it was a ''INTERFEARANCE ISSUE'' .The fully completed loom was removed from my car and placed outside the car . And guess what still the same problem now this was after every switch, every wire was checked, replaced the MSD box countless pictures were sent. So at one point the ''TECH'' said he was done he had to ''TAP OUT!!!!!!'' WTF!!!!! On day one the issue came down to a bad ECU. Sent it back to have it checked... Its fine nothing wrong. Well after all that . Will send you a new ECU. Nope take this garbage back ! I'm not going to put up with this SH!T customer service if I have a problem down the line.
