Question

Thought i'd got it sorted.
my95 uk with full magnex de-cat, panel filter, dawes raceing set at 13 psi.New knock senser.
When driving hard for some miles the car goes from fast slowly down too embaressing.When its hot it misfires(jurks) very badly and when you boot it in all gears it does the same.
Could it be the coil packs as i've tested them and there all the same reading when cold.1.3 ohms .

Unhappy

I have the same proublem but only when my foot is hard down on the floor, the car runs fine if i feed the throttle, i've been told it's to do with the boost on the turbo aparently it's trying to boost it's self to much and needs the vavle in a small rubber pipe turning down very slightly, but you loose power,i haven't done it yet but i think i will have to because it's now beginning to be a pain

Cheers Togde
