I LET THE CAR SIT FOR 4 DAYS DUE TO NEEDING BRAKE PADS AND HAVING NO MONEY.ONES I GOT THE BRAKE PADS IN I TOOK THE FD OUT FOR A RIDE AND ONES I HIT 4K RPMS IT STARTED BOGGING OUT ON ME AND BACKFIRING.I CHANGED THE SPARKPLUGSBUT ITS STILL DOING IT.DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.

 

check your vacuum lines. make sure your o2 sensor is plugged in also. check all of your intercooler hoses, one may of came loose or something in that area. also take your caps lock button off next time.

 

STOP YELLING!

Sound like your car is in limp mode, search under that. Also, make sure your map sensor is connected at both ends.

Also do a check on Flux Capacitor... Trust Me!





(I always get a kick out of that one)

 

check to make sure ur MAP sensor is plugged in and the vac line to it is plugged in. Its a little black box on the driver side of the firewall that says "boost sensor"

 

i checked the map sensor and the vac lines and everything was connected. My bro told me it could be the fuel filter or the fuel pump,you think that could cause it to bog.

 

Well, won't hurt to reset the computer...who knows at this point.

Just disconnect the negative battery terminal and step on the brakes for about 30 seconds. Then hook it back up and crank the sucker up...take it for a spin and see if that does it.

I'm being serious this time.

 

Same problem here.

Im in the process of:
1. Changing Fuel Filter
2. Injector Service
3. Turbo Simplication/Emissions Removal

and testing all the components on the way...hope when its all back it works properly. Mine sounds like a popcorn machine on steriods.

 

Some sediment could build up as the car was stationary and clog the fuel filter. Change that if you dont succeed with ecu reset.

 

I recently ran a 17.80 at the drag strip. When I looked at the datalog afterwards, I found everything ok with fuel and ignition timinmg but boost was all over the place like 4psi and then imediate spikes to 15, 13, 14.
Before the run I sat idling for quite a while. the car never ran like this before, but didnt clear up on the way home. Next day, same thing, ran ok under no or low boost but could'nt hardly get over 5k RPM. On a hunch, I figured maybe the long idle cooked a coil. Both trailing coils checked ok but leading was showing only 8 Ohms, book says any less than 1 Ohm is toast. Ray Crowe fixed me up with a new one for $130 and everything is fine

 

 

I am confused, if less than 1 Ohm is toast, and you tested 8, then why did you replace it?

 

that was supposed to read .8

 

I reset the computer and that was exactly what it was, no more boggingout or backfiring. Thanks a lot PandazRx-7. Maybe next time it will be the Flux Capacitor.lol
