jjs_82 Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Hi all, Was out for a drive in my car today and was driving it for about 15-20 mins, and it started to miss a bit. I pulled in and when i gave it a rev and the hand went to settle like it normally does it started to bounce instead between 500 and 1000 rpm so i turned it off and back on again and everything seemed okay. So there later on tonight i was driving for about 30 mins and it started to do the same thing again, it's like it's going off a plug or something. I have new plugs in it, so does anyone have any idea whats going on?? And i checked for boost leaks and everythings fine that end!! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supranature Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 If you've recently had your plugs changed I will bet its a faulty/loose coil pack connecter. A known weak point. There is a thread in FAQ on how to refurb them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjs_82 Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 I'll have to look at them tomorrow. If it was a faulty coil pack would it not do it all the time now?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I'll have to look at them tomorrow. If it was a faulty coil pack would it not do it all the time now?? Could be be breaking down when heated. I had the similar problem with my NA when the leads were breaking down after a decent run in cold weather. Other than that it never missed at all. I would swap some or all of the coil packs and see if that makes a difference. Be careful, they are easy to break and very expensive H.

Usually manifest issues under load unless fubarred, but I did say it would be the connecters http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?61141-How-To-Refurbish-coil-pack-connectors Who changed your plugs? Are they gapped correctly, and what brand are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
