engine won't pull ???
 
Running the car earlier and is set to boost to 10psi.

running about earlier, hits boost fine etc.. then all of a sudden the car seems to not pull.. Fuel is ok.. so roll down the road to the petrol station to double check..

Chuck fuel in and still doing this..

The car will boost to 5psi fine.. but as soon as it hits 10, it goes flat.

Any ideas?

Is it holding boost ................Fooked actuator perhaps?

Stu.H Jun 15, 2005 12:32 AM

Its pulls, then suddently goes really bad.. but fine if you take foot off accelerator..

Was fine til last night :wall:

not really the same symptoms but when mine hit about 10 psi it used to hesitate and fook about. end of the day it was a faulty chip causing it! :wall:

AndyBlackFRST Jun 15, 2005 12:05 PM
