skishop69 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 First off I must say the only thing I hate more than being wrong, is someone else being right. Grounds, Grounds, Grounds... Check your d*mn grounds!!! Did you know that if the gound on the coolant crossover under the intake is not good, you can burn up an ECU and an ignitor. I know, I did it! Never trust your test light to tell you a ground is good. I of all people should know this. Of course, after two weeks of fighting, you tend to loose focus and be very frustrated. Anywhoo... She purrs like a kitten at idle and screams like a Jag on accel. The top end isn't quiete there though. She won't rev past 5k without a bog and it's worse when the turbo kicks in. New pump and filter with good pressure so I'm fairly sure it's not fuel related. I'll have to do a backbressure test on the CAT under load and see what pops up. Time to go shine the little lady!!!

Turbone Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Should run it up to my place, see if it will make it up the hill, lol. Could either be the cat or a tooth off on the timing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skishop69 Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Already checked the timing last night. It's fine just driving around, just under a hard load. Look for PM... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
