Hi guys,

I am having issues at high revs 4-5grand +, with my car spluttering and poping and losing power. We dont think its the timing or the knock sensors after running a diagnostic computer.

A few people have said it could be the coil packs, how do i check the them? It would cost a lot to replace them and if there isnt a problem with them that could be a real waste of money.

also another person mentioned the air flow meter.. sound like it could be the problem?

*tear*

cheers :rofl:

i had the same problem mate my coils were fine

however it only started happening when i put in new iridium plugs. for the moment i gapped them right down to .6 and this fixed the problem but still happens from time to time

i am going to put some copper ngk plugs in next i have a feeling its the iridium plugs but i will test and see if its is

How do you know your coil packs are fine?

i took them out and thoroughly inspected them no scorch marks cracks etc plus the fact that they work most of the time now makes me think they are fine. coils are either broken or working from my understanding they dont work intermitently??

also my car was fine before i put iridium plugs in it then it started happening

      My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.

      I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.

      I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended

      I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
