Fixing a No-Start issue on the Talon + New Daily Driver!!

[@VegaTuned]

Glad you got it fixed man!!

[@Al3xTalon]

Thanks bro

[@AutoDetour]

NICE TRUCK!! I love it!

[@Al3xTalon]

Thanks buddy!

[@chrispaugh87]

That ecmlink update as stated below is the truth. Has some added features for e85 with the flex fuel sensor

[@AWD_T]

Maybe you saved “activate pump” in link. Glad you figured it out the pump issue. It’s only two wires for the flexfuel sensor and you have the sd harness from link?

[@Al3xTalon]

I thought of that too but I don’t think so. I’m 95% sure I did it right. I bought their harness and everything. Haven’t figured it out yet.

[@Heaviathur]

@@Al3xTalon you can also have ecmlink prime the pump for however many seconds you want it to. Might be worth hooking a laptop up to it to check it.

[@Al3xTalon]

Interesting! That I didn’t know. Thanks!

[@nicktunesnemesisperformanceINC]

Don’t you have ecmlink ? The fuel pump primes for as long as you’d like in the settings in the new firmware mine is set for 1.5 sec

[@Al3xTalon]

I need to check into that. That’s news to me!

[@AWD_DSM_FTW]

@@Al3xTalon Also check the misc tab to ensure you don't have the pump enable checkbox clicked. Easy enough to do when diagnosing and forget.

My fuel pump just went out on my 92 eclipse gsx

[@Al3xTalon]

Lucky for you they’re not too bad. Might as well do some upgrading while you’re there! 🤘

[@BoostedDilly]

I'm digging the new truck! Looks awesome!

[@Al3xTalon]

Thanks! Me too 😁

[@tabaapparel3040]

Other question so the 450 ph awd tsi woukd it make it a 200 mile drive back to my home form where I purchase it or bring a trailer if I can?? You say it’s going to be money to work on I was between a Subaru and tsi not sure what’s smarter but I have a daily Subaru looking in to somthing different and 4g63t amazing

[@jimbojimson]

I don't know why these cars treat us this way, my Eclipse was at least put away under its own power. I went to pull it out of the garage today and it won't crank 😫

[@DSM96]

😎👍

[@benkalinowski5834]

My fuel pump died 25 years ago and when I did it I wasn't gently with the float and that made my gauge be off 1/4 of a tank I took it all apart and I bent the float a crack and it's dead on now and everytime I took it apart after that it's dead on So it's good

[@Al3xTalon]

Interesting! I might be pulling it out again and may look into that. Thanks!

Oh man, I'm about to pull the trigger on a 1991 Eagle Talon TSI. However, it's not running, and the guy is being shady on what happened to the engine. He wants $3500, which is way too much. I think $800 would be more suitable.

[@Al3xTalon]

I completely agree. Not running not worth much. Can be very expensive to get running again depending on what’s going on.

[@reubenmorris487]

Offer him half-price. You just need the chassis anyhow. Do you plan to mod it yourself??

[@tabaapparel3040]

He al3x I was looking into buying a 1g tsi and have two I’m looking at one had a rebuilt engine 20k miles and makes 450hp or there is another fresh built with no miles on it and price for Both are $3k what are your though form being a owner ? Thanks

[@Al3xTalon]

I would check over both cars good for rust issues. If you can, go see them. A lot of people have sold these cars knowing that they have issues. Also, know that getting into these cars you are going to end up spending a good amount of money on them. Maintenance is key.

[@tabaapparel3040]

Ok I see I was looking at parts and they very good price for most stuff also my other though was Subaru gc8 but the dsm are somthing i have liked for a long time plus they seem like one could work on it

[@BoostedCajun]

Nice new daily! Glad to see you’re giving the Talon some love what about the Eclipse? Any plans for it?

[@Al3xTalon]

The eclipse is leaking oil all over the place.. Haven't taken the time to figure out why yet.

[@Ryan_1997]

Dont you ever sell your car bro; the eclipse.

[@Al3xTalon]

Oh it’s not sold. Just hiding for now 😉

[@benkalinowski5834]

Still to this day it's dead on
