Hi guys, been long time. Camaro with Whipple been amazing... just other day refuses to fire/start.

Have you checked your fuel pump module fuses, you have one up front in the main fuse box and one in the trunk under the trunk mat. Do you have a boost a pump? If so does it have a fuse. Sounds like a fueling issue to me.

Thx! Will check that ASAP. I did do a skim over the fuses at front did not know about in trunk. Will check front again and the trunk.

EDIT: Nothing appears blown however I did live on a dirt road (recently moved) and lots of them needed some extra seating so I did do that. Checked trunk nothing looks wrong.

So today instead of just turning it makes the slightest effort to fire but just enough to tease me. Battery is now pretty low so got that charging.

So interesting however that Onstar hasnt sent me one of those "GET YOUR CAR TO THE DEALER" emails like they seem to catch for everything else!

It sounds exactly what my car was doing and first it blew the boost a pump fuse, at another race it blew the fuse in the box in the trunk and on Saturday during my burn out it blew the boost pump fuse again. Every time its been during the burn out at the track. Its not blown the one under the hood yet and hope it doesn't.

I had a very similar thing happen and it was a fuse in front. I am not 100% certain, but I thought it was the fuel system control module.

Thx much for the replies. I will do another check on the fuses....are we taking F50? I was mainly focused on F50, 66, 67 based on descriptions and one of the relays. I noticed one of the relays that sounded like it may be related had a second relay of exact part number and even tried swapping that. Battery was so drained I put it on charger over night will try again today.

Edit: Also inspected trunk fuse box. Also I do not think I have a boost pump.. I have an intercooler pump installed for the Whipple.

Edit2: Also should note hitting start acts wonky like if I open and close the door sometimes the window will go down an inch over and over like it's in stupid mode....something is WHACK

Try to check the map sensor line from Whipple. Whipple had a issue on the harness pin.

I forgot all about that... that was the one with the wire that was slightly too short and ended up very tight stretch...
