alright folks, the scooby has recently been cutting out after stopping hard, i.e pulling up to lights, juntions etc etc, it only happends when im driving the car on full boost, then have to all of a sudden slam the brakes on, it dont always cut out but will start to cut out if not it will fully cut out, any one know what might be causing this, iv checked to see if theres a leak in any of the lines but all seems fine.

 

Hiya mate
How much fuel do you have in the tank when this happens ?

Ben

 

at least half a tank, it very rarley has less than a quater in it

 

if the car is a 99/00 classic then I would suggest replacing the maf sensor.

Simon

 

sorry simon i did forget to mention what model it was, my97 sti 3, it has the orange maf.

 

unlikely to be maf then but possible.

vent to atmosphere dumpvalve fitted? and openning as returning to idle..

 

i did have a hks bov fitted, now has the standard re-circ one fitted

 

sorry to bring a old post up again, but yesterday the same problem happened to me again, while i was driving the car hard on full boost down a short strip of duel carriageway, and quickly pulled up to the roundabout, applying my my brakes hard same thing happend again the car just cut out, iv tried searching the net to find what the problem could be but still no good, anyone have any sort of idea what might be causing this???

Thanks folks.
