i just installed a new 255 lph fuel pump and the install went great i installed it for my paxton sn-89 unit and i installed the supercharger but now and before same problems. the supercharger doesnt put out any power when my timeing is at 10 but my distributer looks messed up since the max i can time is at 19* so i think its off. i turned the timeing up to 17 and the car runs nice and has a little boost but the problem is when i hit boost my supercharger puts out smoke white smoke from the engine bay and the car jumps when i hit boost. i put automatic trans fluid f in it but if i added to much fluid could it just be burning the fluid because thats what it smells like??? also im going to regap my spark plugs at 38th today i was told i need to regap them im hopeing this stops the jerking when in boost but as for the smoke i think its burning the fluid what do you guys think about my problem??? one more thing if i have vacume leaks could that be why boost makes my car shake??
