plug in your maff. thats what i forgot, when done engine out job? just an idea.

hi bud that's pluged in may have to put more petrol in as I don't know how much is in there and its still up in the air got to be something simple

more fuel i think thats under pressure so dont think it matters if theres 5 pound or twenty pound of fuel in.

could be this as you have taken it off to sort the plenum out...

Where to start? It starts then dies.. It wont run even if you try adjust the engine rpm with the pedal? Have you changed injectors?

yea if I pump it, it revs then it dies

have you got the fuel regulator mixed up with the fuel damper ..both on plenum and can be confusing

eerm going to say don't know is the regulator bigger than the damper just trying to think all I can do is change them over

no dont change before you have checked mate with pics and other evidence...it happend to me a few years ago and played havoc with my running

hahaha it ant doing so well now ok ill look at the manual before I do anything

boost leak sounds possible

no m8 she a n/a

checked for a blocked fuel filter, ive had that before.

ok repulled the plenum rechecked the hoses found 2 where air was going in fixed them still ran poor so pulled the maf plug off runs sweet as a nut do I need a new maf? cheers mark for the help and every one that sent messages to get me this far ted

is the maf you're old one or a new one? can you get a spare to try... in case it's the connector or the loom...

 

and have you cleaned the connectors?

hi yea its the old one iv cleaned the plug when I replug the maf it just cut out took the plug off started high revs but ran on her own steam iv just seen how much thay are but I think needs must

Nope your Maf is doing its job ... unpluging it only indicates the Problem is in another place and on your engine being a NA

not meny places so i would start checking all the Pipes

 

Idle Control valve all 4 pipes

Air Intake Both sides

PVC pipes

 

and just for testing Block off the 2 vac lines on Throttle bodys

and the side and balance pipes

all done runs with maf pluged on well happy

also big thank you to markderby for giving me the push forward cheers fella i.o.u a beer or two
