Started the small turbo this morning,pulls out the drive and jumps out to shut the gate ,bloody thing stalls and when i try and restart it its seems like its missing and wont rev up,checked plugs(not wet)pipes,air flow sensor,fuses,can hear the fuel pump going???????????any ideas please

 

is any part of the engine wet,wiring etc....

 

No but it was quite damp last night,when i start it and hold it full throttle it feels like its choking and missing,doesnt smell rich tho.had it set up by stu at blackpool oter week an it has been running great till this morning?

 

Have just put a new set of plugs in,no different,there is a funny smell from exhaust.None of the plugs were wet so i dont think its a coil problem.............any ideas much appreciated

 

does the car still have the cat in it it might be that it has broke up happened on a car a had once or fuel filter blocked

 

In my case this kind of behaviour was dirty ECU multiplug. But it may be any sensor - cranskshaft sensor, MAF something like this.

 

The cat is still on and sometimes i can hear it rattling so it could well be the problem,pain in the arse

 

if its rattling, its definately fooked - get a mongoose fitted

 

Its a bit unfortunate that i have a year old magnex on at the mo and you cant buy a cat replacement pipe apparently on this application so if it is the cat then i will need to get one made up.

 

Andy i've got the standard cat section that came off mine when i put the stainless on if you want to to try it.

As it turns out it was condesation/water in the fuel,new fuel filter fitted Wonder whats next

 

YOU DONT NEED TO BUY A CAT JUST TAKE THE CAT OFF THE CAR CUT THE TOP OUY OF IT TAKE THE CERAMIC PART OUT AND WELD THE METAL BIT YOU CUT OFF BACK ON AND JOB DONE
