Amjad Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Had the clutch and flywheel done (also CV/ball joint). It keeps dropping revs and stalling, fitted a new map sensor which has made no difference (vacuum line is fine). Most annoying thing is its intermittent and the check engine light comes on only for a bit and no codes are stored. So I've got no idea what's causing it! Fuses are fine, earths are okay as far as I can tell. Shortly before idle problems it was only running 0.5 instead of 1 bar.Also boost gauge isn't getting a signal but I figured that may be a faulty sensor (electronic). But for that to go at the same time, I dunno.. Unplugged IACV, no difference. Running Mine's ECU, stock FPR, stock pump (could this be failing?) >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQKhNFviEyU Really want this sorted, would appreciate any help! Amjad Quote
5e colin Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 its hard to say like that check the sensors if there al connected especially the ecu temp sensor in the thermo housing !!! it wont be a vac leak because the revs will be higher Quote
Amjad Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 Have you got a pic of that sensor please Colin? I'm not too clued up Quote
Amjad Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 Just had a look around that area, looks like everything is intact. Only plug that isn't connected is a 2 wire one that I believe was for the cat temp sensor. Quote
5e colin Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 dont have a pic handy but if there al connected then its probly got to do near the intake mani Quote
Amjad Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 No difference with TPS unplugged either Fuel pump prime video >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEbrw7YRT2c Could feel fast pulsations in the fuel line at the filter, normal? Quote
Amjad Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 Sorted. Rechecked everything and map sensor had some damage from when I was adjusting bracket, repaired and car is working fine Thanks Colin! Quote
Amjad Posted March 14, 2015 Author Posted March 14, 2015 So an update on this, the morning after I thought the issue was fixed the car conked out again! Checked plugs because there was a definite misfire and the #3 HT lead was covered in oil! Spark plug seal at fault then, thanks to ID-Workz I've got a new cam cover set with spark plug seals and nut washers. That'll be going on asap, but car is sorted for now Quote
