Hi all, today i warmed the car up and drove it no probs the when at idle for only about a min or so trying to pull away it feels bogged down and is missing, if i build the revs up to 1500 - 2000 it pulls away ok and still flys with no missing. Its mainly when i stop then try to pull away.

I am using shell V power and a bottle of millers octane boost as well.

If i rev it under the bonnet i can hear a miss on the revs at 2000 rpm

Might change the coil packs x 4, its a wrx type-ra on a 94 L plate.

Thanks, John

 

Definitely sounds like a spark issue to me, and would as you said check the plugs and coil packs are ok first.

 

Hi i have had a quick look under the bonnet and found the plug for the lambda sensor by the turbo is disconnected, not sure if this is the prob, will try tomoz

cheers

 

I know this was a while back but did you ever sort it?

 

Hi jdc1, ye all sorted now.

I changed all 4 coil packs...2 where cracked, then replaced air fiter,pipe from turbo to res box ( very small splits) ,removed and re-sealed intercooler. its alot but i was there so i went around all intake.

 

Cheers for the reply mate, when you say you resealed the intercooler do you mean the gasket underneath at the Y-pipe?
