View Full Version : Hmmm What Going on hear then . . . .
Question Time - AGAIN!
Seems when driving the supe, kaining it from say 60 onwards it seems to go like the stink and then sort of hang back as if its got no power, then its off again, then it stops, and goes etc??? Really weird, anyones supe does this?????
Help Please
Hesitation/misfire? Are you running more boost than stock? If so it could be yer spark plugs need a colder grade.

Yeah its sort of hesitation, no back fires etc??? Its got no Cats, and is running about 1 bar boost
Just though the same thing myself, how do I resolve this????
Does this happen at about 110(ish) mph?
If so, then your speed restrictor is still in place (if its a J-spec!)?

Pete Betts will sort you out with a Fuel Cut Defenser
It's easy to tell if it's fuel cut, as the car violently stops accelerating (much worse than a gear change) and the check engine light goes on for a few seconds.

1: If the big red triangle and engine warning light appear along with a large jolt then it's likely to be fuel cut.
2: If it's a progressive slowing down, stuttering then it's likely to be plugs.
Fit NEW and go one grade colder.
3:If it just won't go past 112mph then you have the top speed limiter still and need to remove it.
Email me on peter@trlperformance.com for 1 and 3 resolutions.
2: can be sourced from JPS Motorsport, Torque IC, TDi or yourself directly from a motor fator.
You need NGK 6097 (BKR7E) for example.
Regards
Pete
Cheers Pete, I do some more test, needs a service soon, so ill upgrade the plugs and see how i get on

That's exactly what I had last year, I thought it was a 'soft cut' at about 16PSI. After much discussion I got BKR7E's put in to replace the stock platinum 6's and I now hit the 18PSI 'hard cut' red triangle on 'good' days.
