ah crap...monte is doing it again...code 51
ok i thought i had the issue sorted out, and i registered and insured the car yesterday and finally took it out today. It now runs like CRAP, doesnt want to rev right, no power, wont go over 3k rpms, speedo wouldnt work etc. I pulled the codes again and all i got was code 51 again, bad prom or ecm. I figure since i already swapped out the comp it must be the "custom" PROM. I unplugged the computer and let it sit to clear the code, after about a min i tried it again, this time no code runs GREAT, revs soild sounds much better, i took it out and speedo now works and it feels right, i pulled bakc in my driveway, turned it off, then started it, and once again back to crap, with a ses code, i cleared it once again, then tried, bakc to good, you get the picture now i hope. So I KNOW the issue is COMP?PROM related, but i doubt ecm since it was swapped. i guess i need a new chip, someone told me to contact "fasterthanyou" about a prom. i dont need a specific custom burn as much as a mild modified chip just to allow my engine to run (350 SD, 5spd, no vats, no air select/diverter valves, LT1 injectors, K&n filter, & full headers) but i can drive the car if i keep clearing the ecm before everytime i start it. oh well...
