Retarded ignition? On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

OK cheers guys, so it's more likely to be lean / crazy ignition rather than something more arkward like cam timming? Mr. Prawn, the friendly Crustacean- slowly making steps towards forced induction. |

check your tappets are set properly, i once had one branch of a exhaust glowing, (on a motorbike, but still) and that turned out to be a exhaust valve nipping up and jamming open when things warmed up. Probably not the problem, but worth knowing!! And on the 7th day........... God created turbochargers! |

The exact jeting can only be determined on a rollers Prawn but if you use these as a base line it will be more than safe enough to take for a spin.

odd that its centre only, that could point to a valvetrain issue on 2-3

Definitely sounds lean as it is popping back through carb....although usually you need to be on the rich side for startup or the DCOE won't run. It probably would have stalled shortly if you tried to keep it going due to leaning out. Eric

If I’d known your pants preference I’d have worn them when you came round!
