Blew my FMIC intercooler hose (to throttle body) off the other day, with a bang. Limped home and sorted it out, new clips etc, tightened up.

The thing is, the car now runs like a bag of spanners. Any ideas why? All engine parameters appear normal, it just runs lumpy.

Its not been remapped yet, but was running fine before the hose came off.

Please help!

The car will run very rich if an I/C hose comes off, and it will have fouled the plugs more than likely. Get it running and take it out for a bit of a cruise at 70mph and it should clean up within a few minutes.

 

Thanks Paul!!

Hope you're not too busy on 15th, I want to get it up to you for a map tweak.
