Running Out Of Fuel? Plugs Breaking Down?

[unitfmx]

hi, for awhile now my rb20det at just before limiter has been studdering (farting noise is best i can describe) sounds like it may be running out of fuel or plugs breaking down? the car doesnt jerk back and forth just loses power for a few seconds... Any help would be good.

thanks

You'd probably know about it if it was running out of fuel.

Might be spark. Guilt-Toy's suggestion is a good one. If 0.8 doesn't work, try 0.6. Also try cleaning your coil packs and insulating them with wd40 (spark takes path of least resistance if it can). There's a write up on this forum somewhere: search for it. If that helps, I'd probably think about splitfires and re-grounding coil pack wiring.

Ok have just got around to changing plugs in my car, the ones in there are NGK v power 7 and they are shorter than the BCPR6ES... are these v powers any good? do i need to get shorter plugs?

thanks
