Re: Fuel Or Not ??

Too rich? Could be the unburnt fuel from the non-firing cylinder (coilpack gone) causing this.

Well, I guess if you have the coilpacks anyway no harm in swapping them anyway but it doesnt sound like the problem. When one of mine went the engine felt like a lawnmower and had about the same power! lol.

Good luck but you should not need an intercooler with just a remap.

I couldnt fault it for the cash I was willing to spend. Id always liked the purposeful look of them too. Its amazing value for money and everyone seems to like it.

And you?

Re: Fuel Or Not ??

if the maf is faulty, that could lead to some of those codes. Try disconnecting the electrical connection from the maf, does the idling improve?

Re: Fuel Or Not ??

is that without the maf connected, if the maf is disconnected and its idling ok then you have found the problem.
