madmonkee 0 Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Its been running real shite recently, and over the last couple of weeks ive been changing stuff, and its been gettin no worse or better. Today i did oil and filter, and fuel filter, retopped up on anti freeze. Get back in it, now its pulling real hard from low down below 2000rpm. Same as when i got it chipped. Been running fine untill tonite, it started to go up the range goto about 3500 and it seemed to stutter for a milli second then ran like a bag of spanners.... real flat all the way up the range. Sounded like it was missing for a short period of time... i dunno get the leads changed?? Plugs are new, perhaps its too much heat in the induction or a leak maybe??? stumped!!!!

acf8181 0 Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 i think its probably best to get the fault codes checked...could be the hall sender starting to give up.could also be leads, plugs, coilpack, so on.is your car OBD1? may be worth cleaning the ISV and TB as well.
