so we had rev issues basically the car cold revved got warm would get to 3,500rpm and go blehhhh pop pop pop so i rang around and got told to replace my sensors so i bought a new MAT, MAP TPS, IAC even threw a new regulator on... and still no avail found we had fuel pressure it had me stumped. i always had a sneaky suspicion the problem lied within the loom or dizzy anyway pulled all the conduit found alot of dodgy work not one but 2 auto leccys had done... grrr 1000 each time and they still #@$^%& me over. an earth was on the front of the block and went to the cab and earthed in there... anyway learnt how to read the diagrams and found that my map wires had melted at the back... shortened them soldered them put them back. found a couple of wires dodgy and a whole load of earths sitting in the loom. chased it back and found anyway still had the problem...

 

anyway found a bloke who scanned it. and found the dizzy sensor had shit itself... now it hits fuel cut limiter one happy larry... now i gotta somehow get the rest of the interior in and shifter back together and hopefully just make it for gazzanats friday otherwise i might head up during the day saturday and spend a good solid day up there.
