8V Turbo Problems

Recommended Posts

gandalf

Hi all ,

My 8v turbo is having a few issues.

It started with a miss fire , so i checked the plugs and no 3 was wet. I changed the plugs and it seemed ok.

Went out for a drive and was ok for about half hour, then under full throttle at higher rpm it just dies. If I lift off the throttle it goes again.

It has also started stalling,on idle after a few mins of sitting there.

 

I have replaced the coil and idle control valve , still the same !

Any ideas ?

Fuel pump?

 

Pressure and flow rate drop off with old age

 

Just had similar problems on my 8v
