I'm not sure if this is an ECU, Tuning, or mechanical issue.
I finally sealed the vacuum leaks (I think) and took the car for a run. It was running well but then started running rich with a rough idle, so I pulled over and the IAC was down to 0 again. I found that my vacuum line for my boost gauge had blown off, so I fixed it and continued on. I only traveled about a mile when it started running really rough and could barely stay running. I headed home and it started running ok again, then would go back to barely running. When I got home, I found the vacuum hose going to the boost solenoid had blown off, so I fixed that. When I started it back up it ran rough, then smoothed out back to normal, but the next thing I know it is barely able to idle and the engine is knocking. I was getting ready to shut it off when it smoothed out again with no noises or knocking but then it just stalled out. I tried one more time, but it was back to barely running and knocking, so I shut it down and gave up.
Why would vacuum lines be blowing off?
Why would it knock but once its smooths out be fine again?
I have attached a couple of the runs I did, and my tune.
