can anyone help!!!!!!!! 1992 big turbo escos, about 1yr ago i had problems with spluttering on boost and idle probs but it turned out to be the two multiplugs near the headlight (usual escos problem) i have hard wired em removing the plugs!! all has been well since untill recent rain downpours now its doing it again!! if i rev it at idle when its just off idle it splutteres like its losing spark, and the same at 2500 revs and at 3500 revs!!! ive changed every sensor on the engine and checked ecu!!! im wondering if its possible for the soldered joints i did last your to be wet? faulty? anyone ghot an imput????

 

used to have some contact problems with some of my cars try lots of contact lube or vasolin in the block connector then cover with an inner tube

 

ive removed the plugs and soldered the wires together!!!!!

 

Solder can and does break mate, worth a check

ive tugged at all the soldered wires but all seem stuck together???? mite re do em again !!!! it sorted it last time .

 

just for everyones future reference i found the problem!!!! after nearly pulling the whole wiring loom out!!!! It was a corroded earth wire to the tps switch (throttle position switch) replaced it and its now perfect again!!! damn wiring!!!! but it had all the symptoms of a map sensor problem, so dont be caught out guys!! thanks for the advise everyone.
