I think you've probably got a fuel leak.
Maybe you pushed a fuel line when you were standing on your head installing the Quad?

I don't under stand. What is it exactly doing? Cranking for 30 seconds or won't try to start for 30 seconds. do you have the Pulse too?

Default same problem with a torque dog

I could't start my ctd after using my torque dog. It won't set the timing back, only turns half a turn. I disconnect both batterys and reboot the computer, then it starts right up. I called bullydog and they said it was the connections. I tried cleaning them and didn't help. this thing is brand new out of box, but I can't find the receipt. So I guess I'M SCREWED. Im going to try dealing with them. It cost $549. thanks Frank

Hmmm... I've heard of problems with some programmers...

But I would check your fuel system for fuel leaks and what your cranking pressure is... You'll see my first pass you see the pump fade out after I let off the key. (air in the line!)

when i dont have a big power programer i wait a few seconds and start it. and everythings good. but if i put either a quadzilla or a smarty on it even with them on stock i have to wait atleast 30 seconds to start it. but i also have a 65 horse edge ez and its just like normal wait 2 to 3 seconds and starts right up.
