Could any one help me with my 1989 s2 turbo. It doesnt seem to pull as hard as i think it should in the higher gears.it feels like its holding back like a diesel with a blocked fuel filter if you know wat i mean.wen i ease off the throttle slighty it seems to help.a bit. Its been on rolling road and everything was ok but when the engine is pulling the car i can feel the problem. The enginge has been rebuilt.new fuel pump and filter.new plugs leads and distributor.

 

I had this and was spark plugs playing up. Also plug gaps I had to adjust on new plugs was also causing the same. Have you got a boost gauge fitted?

 

Ive had new plugs fitted.wat are the recomended plugs to use.its a cheap option to try.would ghe rolling road not of picked up on that? No i havent got boost gauge fitted. Its got a bailey dump valve. Ive read a few bad things about those. Ots got .31 actuator and a chipped ecu. Did yours pull better once plugs were set up right?

 

Car also has scorpion exhaust fitted.just read they arent the best either. In first gear you think this is gona be fast.but its not.it came of the rolling road at 144bhp. Not sure wat boost psi was.i just told the bloke i didnt want it to boost to high.
