Keep trying but to no avail.
My 95 uk wagon is still missing of juddering when hot and revs drop right off and stalls sometimes but only when hot.
Fault code 45 is coming up so i replace the part but the same fault code is coming up. Could it be a split pipe under the induction manifold?
I've replaced the MAF aswell, put in new plugs, new coils, got full decat, hks filter, dawes set at 16psi. fuel cut set at 18 psi, renewed nerly every sensor but still no good. I've earth the engine with a proper earthing kit,now i'm stuck......
Please help again.
I've also put on a dv and uk300 intercooler with samco y piece.
Is there any one that i can take it too on here that can help or does any body know what it could be.

Get some easy start, or carb cleaner. Spray it around the area where you think there may be an air leak. If the engine rpm rises, then it has drawn some of the spray into the engine, and you have a leak.

Dont spray it round the air filter directly, as obviously this too will cause rpm to rise as the engine draws it in.

Other than that, a full visual inspection is needed, but the above method should help.
Is the dump valve leaking???? Some makes give a lot more trouble than others, with a few of the expensive ones even giving a lot of bother.
