Yes the guy that did test does opensource he cant seem to find issue says fueling is fine and 02 and maf are within tolerances

Tidgy

find a better mapper would be my advice

Tidgy

I keep going back to 02 and maf as they were off a breaker so dont know if they can be trusted to be working correctly

Tidgy

has it missfired when hes been plugged in? if he only see's it when its fine hard to trace intermitent fault

No misfire when he had laptop on it it only misfires if i try to drive through bad stuttering as in apply more throttle instead of just lifting off

.65 heat 7s replaced just incase but no difference

Tidgy

dont try to drive through it, could damage the engine. Can you leave the car parked up and go into town and then have him plug in when its cold and doing it?

Tidgy

Compression (warm engine, 350 rpm and fully open throttle)

Standard = 142 — 171 psi
Limit = 128 psi
Difference between cylinders less than 7 psi

Your pressures are low and below the bottom limit. Might be worth getting a leak down test done to establish where the problems. Could be piston rings or valves passing.

Started car today sat for 2mins before driving off water gauge reading 43degrees drove fine when andy mapped it he said he didnt get a signal from avcs within the 60secs on start up but said he would get it on the road could this be the issue

Those readings are low, and as its across all 4 cylinders its doubtful its rings, id look more at the engine timing etc.

Could just be a ****ty tester.
