hello ladsand lasses, just asking for some advice please. recently had cossy set up running two, had head gasket done , ported head, greys, t34 etc. all has been running fine with the car and its fine to jsut driver around casually in but when i come to give it some beans a problem occurs! can some times go for it in first and then change to second and the whole thing will just cut out. then i start it and it splutters into life chugs away and then finally gets back onto four cylinders, it will also do this if i give it some in second only it wont cut out here but by the time i have changed into third im back making a noise like a subaru. however it will boost all the way through third fourth fifth fine and pulls like a train in these gears! before i had the headgasket done it did this and i thougth it was that psi had the headgasket and setup carried out at a very reputable specialist and i do not doubt their work at all, however as the problem has returned again i wondered if it coudl be anything else! electrical or anything like that? that would be an easy fix and save me alot of time and or money
it does it under high revs in first and second, as i say the car drives about and stuff apot on but its only when i wanna give it a tickle i cant! thanks for any advice

 

You're from blackpool get it to MSD m8,i'd regap the plugs etc do the easy stuff yourself.

 

year ill be best doing that i suppose, i guess its one of them problems that coudl be somethign big or somethign minor. ill let them check it out.

 

as said, check your plugs. had something similar myself which was all sorted with a new set of plugs.... cheapest fix on a cossie yet

 

i hope its something like that, i never have that kind of luck tho. if its my car itll be expensive! guaranteed. lol. ill check them anyways. anything else it might be, could it be quality of plugs not upto scratch? by this i mean some proper performance plugs may be required?

 

im using 071s in mine at the moment. £15 delivered from Mike. They dont last long, but they do the job just fine on my Saph. Also running them in stage 3 escos without problems. Only thing with them is they dont last very long, but at £15 a set who cares

 

for fifteen quid may aswell have a set anyways. if it solves my problem then all the better. ill look into that cheers
