Hey,

Following my recent post about a change in the cars performance

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...=345863&hl=lag

After a few tanks of optimax and a map whack or two the problem seemed to go away.

Until this week. Now the only things have changed since before, is that i used the same shell petrol station as i did the first time i had the problem (Optimax of course).

So same thing again, seems to be a lag in the acceleration when you plunk the foot down. The only other thing to recently change is that i put the CAT in on saturday for the MOT

So, is it

1)Dodgy fuel from a dodgy Petrol Station that should be named and shamed?

2) A safe mode related to the CAT being stuck back in??

or

3) A dodgy MAP and the petrol is a conicednce?

 

Slack throttle cable worth checking

 

As an intermitent problem?

ll have a check, i know there was a post somewhere telling you how to adjust it

 

Found it..

Try it 2nite if i get the chance

 

Tightened the throttle cable up...

...Same problem...

...Any other ideas?

 

New MAP sensor? Cheap from hardtopguy.com

 

So no one thinks that it could be dodgy fuel?

 

Mine kangaroos in traffic sometimes..Is that the map sensor on its way out?

 

Its fairly normal for the heat soak to cause this.

If it kangaroos very badly (ie violently and dangerously) then it is a rarer nightmare problem.

 

No only does it occasinally and not that bad....I just put a bit more revs in an its fine..
