weird engine/hesitation/bogging down problem
Recently my FD has been acting up on me. When I put some load on the car it backfires and bogs down alot. I also noticed that my Power FC commander resets and shows the intro stuff(screen you see when you first turn key on) It idles relatively normal and if i drive it with very light throttle itll be ok. Only when I put load on the car does it run like crap.
I havent had time to look at it yet but was hoping to get some ideas. Thanks |
Oui! Where to start! perhaps I would start with the vaccuum line that goes to the MAP sensor. Or maybe you blew a coupler....either of those would make it run like crap under load but fine until then....
|
It seems to me that the ignition is cutting out, and then coming back on causing the backfire. Ill check vaccum lines and couplers but it doesnt seem like its that type of problem. Thanks
|
With the PFC resetting itself, I could definitely see an electrical problem somewhere. Maybe a loose/bad ground somewhere.
|
so I went to start my car just now and it doesnt start anymore. I dunno if thats good news or bad news. I guess itll be easier to diagnose then an intermittent problem.... all my cars are broken rite now.....crap
|
Car is cranking but doesnt start. No spark at both rotors. Igniter is good, crank sensors are good, coils are good, main relay is good, ECU is good. What else could cause no spark? Crank sensor wires?
|
Check your fuel pump (speed) relay in the front relay box under the stock air intake. I had a very similar problem fixed by the replacement of it.
