For the last week I was driving and somedays the car was fine and other days it seemed like the car was being starved of fuel or something as I put my foot on the accelerator the car didn't speed up and started jumping.

The first time it happened I let my car sit for about 10minutes and then it restarted and I was able to get it off the road into a service station.

But then it happened again a few days later as I went to take off at a roundabout and it stalled and I left it for a day or two after no luck restarting the car.

Any ideas what is causing the problem??

I've changed the fuel filter and I'm in the process of changing the sock on the fuel pump incase thats been blocked up due to bad fuel possibly.

This is what came up on my dash lights

      On some cars like MR2 Turbos they're notorious for not letting the wastegate open far enough to avoid overboost, especially certain cheap downpipes. If adjusting "percentage cycle" fixes it then it's just an electronic control issue, not a hardware one.

      Same.  It's depressing to say this but the skyline can go months on the charger between drives.

      I often leave mine connected weeks at a time. The main one I use is the old model of this, it has 2 important features - choose battery chemistry other than lead acid (most of mine are AGM) - power supply mode which you can use to try and recover dead flat batteries as "smart" chargers often don't recognise a dead flat battery is connected https://www.projecta.com.au/products/IC10/intellicharge-10a-bat-chgr The Ctek I  use was meant to have a battery test mode as well but it doesn't work 100% of the time so I am pissed at them. The distributor did everything possible to make warranty and support difficult so I'll stay away in future. The main thing with a "trickle" charger is it has multi stage programs, ie once the battery is full it turns the current right down to just maintain the charge....in the old days we just used real "trickle" chargers for that which had a maximum output of say 500mA which was safe to just leave connected to dumb old lead batteries.

      I've heard people claim with Just Cars (now defunct) and have been paid out, but painful process, and with Shannons, but noone I know or heard of has claimed with Enthusiast, hence I'm a bit nervous with their policy. Sure I'm "covered" but am I? is the real question

      I have the Century CC1206 12V 1/3/6Amp 9 Stage Battery Charger. It is different from the one you linked but I don't know in what way. Their manual says that it both can be left on 24/7 and that it shouldn't be left on 24/7. Go figure ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I haven't been game to leave it on there for more than 2 days.
