Guest Wakeemkls Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Hey friends! my supra has been driving fine until the other night i was driving home, i noticed that when i was accelerating (especially at high rpm) the car was sort of chugging or fluttering. almost like a cylinder was misfiring or a timing issue. Further along the drive i noticed that a hill i usually go up in 4th gear, i was struggling to get up in 3rd gear. after this i decided not to drive it incase there is a decent issue. upon inspection of the car i figured it was something electrical and have been inspecting the engine, taking the rocker cover off and everything looks right, however all i have noticed is a loud clicking noise from the far end of the engine bay. i figure this could be a spark plug maybe? anyone have any ideas what this could be and if i can diy fix it, or if i'm better off just sending it into the mechanic. Thanks for the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wakeemkls Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 also the timing system was done at 160,000kms and it now sits at 194,000kms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 NA or turbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) NA or turbo? Its a 93 NA Nic Check all the HT leads are on nice and tight, i'd also check all the plugs are at the correct torque for starters in case one has come loose To narrow down the problem you can use plastic pliers and pull a HT lead off the dizzy one at a time and see how it affects how the engine runs, if you pull one off and it makes no difference then you've narrowed down your search to the problem being on that cylinder Edited December 13, 2015 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
