Procharger help needed...
 
I have read hundereds of posts regarding procharger, so ill be quick and to the point. I have a 7.4 MPI (330hp) with a m-1sc procharger. In general in runs well.... My biggest issue right now is getting on plane. It appears to run rich and load up while attempting to accellerate, but I see no black smoke or black on my transom at all. I have heard mentiion of "signal, or line condtioner" sold by Procharger which fools the computer out of cold start mode. I contacted procharger and the tech said he never heard of such a thing. What solutions can you suggest, and where can I obtain one of these fabled line conditioners?

Get a hold of Jamie at Lakeside Restorations. I believe his # is on here somewhere. He knows about the line conditioner. He can point you in the right direction.

I have one I didn't use on my last boat with a Procharger. It came with the 350 Mag Mpi 7 psi kit. I had the ECU reprogrammed so I didn't need it. It is still sealed in the package if you are interested in it let me know.

Take the guts out of any t-stat and use that. It works for me.

I have the same set up with lots more and have blown it up once, re-built and now things are good. I would save my money re the conditioner and put it twards a re-program, in your boat. Dustin did mine and all charteristics have smoothed out.
