car surging/strugling at low rpm's
Ok i have a 89 t2 and if i am in 4th gear about 2k rpm and i start to lightly boost it, the car will just surge,sputter, and not move at all. but i can down shift and get up just fine. if i go to punch it it will strugle for a split second then go like normal. i was noticing a hissing sound (like a leak) coming from my MAF sensor. i visual looked and cant see any craks or anything. i also noticed a ground strap in the MAF conector that was not hooked to anything. im getting a pic of that tomarrow and posting it. does anyone have any idea why my car is surging like that at lower rpm's???

Any codes popping up at all?

i had a simular problem, the way i fixed it was put some injector cleaner in the tank, drive it for a bit, find a nice piece of road, revved it up and drop the clutch, cleans those bastards out REAL good....

yea that shit used to happen to me sometimes, but then I replaced the computer with MT and it hasnt happend since. Check your cas, try to move the magnets closer. And also check your spark plugs and wires. |

How's your rear rotor housing ground? The ECU may not be seeing it good... |
