Kriss 0 Posted November 6, 2008 My gti idle's pretty low (about 700rpm) The problem is at my house, theres a small hill, te fiesta will do it 3rd gear no problems, the gti nearly died in 2nd. From the lower revs it just seems gutless, but higher up, the powers there. My dad has tried messing with the timing and it's advanced a fair bit, but if you retard it, it just die's Tried a new afm and throttle body, but it's just the same. For the past while, i've been thinking about putting on 1.9 ecu, afm, injectors but i dont know if that would run ok? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bet the valve timings a tooth out - seen it lots . does it pink badly when fully advanced? - my guess is it doesn't Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
