jellybaby Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Does the revs drop ? Could b mainly things ie alternator failing to charge bat / fuelling. Does it do it when hot only or cold ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Check for vac leaks around the intake manifold if you took that off, and around intercooler joiners. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukeglanzav Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 I rung racetech and they seemed to think it was bottom end his he having my pants down or could this actually be the problem ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukeglanzav Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 It only does it wen hot mate from a cold start it runs at like 2k :s Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Whats it idle at when warm?When was the oil last changed? What grade was used? It could well be the bottom end bearings being out of tolerence causing a loss in oil pressure, however that is the most extreme case, so obviously easier to deal with other cheaper alternatives first.
