Glanza-Ben Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 When hot my glanza seems to take a while to start and sometimes idles weird and cuts out my forts are fuel pump as I've got td04 on it atm with 0.5bar of boost any one else had this? Before td04 swap it would fire instantly and when cold it does Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5T4R7ET N/A Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 the standard ecu fuels fine with 0.5 bar on td04 so the problem could be plugs? you running iridiums? does it drive fine? any hesitation or jerking at low rpm? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's got fuel pressure reg as well to help with fuelling, the car drives fines boost fine screams fine dumps fine but just cranks for about 10seconds to start instead of 2 seconds and idles low till I drive it, I do have iridium plugs in it, I know it's probs due a service but only started doin it since td04 swap which baffles me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Have the spark plugs been replaced recently? It's one symptom of tired plugs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

5T4R7ET N/A Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 you dont need a fuel pressure regulator on a td04 with 0.5 bar the standard ecu will fuel fine just been lean on spool. if the plugs are not the problem the next thing I would change would be the FPR.
