right problem number two ! the car will rev though fine when not in gear but when you drive it and it goes to come up on boost it starts to miss, will drive fine not on boost ( under 3200 rpm)

any ideas ?

cheers James

I'd definately start by looking at fuel pressure. It sounds like the float bowl is not pressurising. this could be caused by a blockage in the carb.

You could try the T-Piece trick, if this fixes it then you know where to look in the carb, i.e. the pressure feed to the float bowl from the plenum.

If not fuel pressure it could be ignition related, are you using a standard metro turbo dizzy? the modules can fail and give all sorts of wierd symptoms.

yes all of the above but if all other items check out OK ........

any! misfires under boost is caused by the mixture too weak................... an AEM lambda gauge is a must in a turbo engine

I had a similar issue. Dv was sticking open.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

If this is an ERA, have you still got the anti run on valve connected. This can fail to close and cause the problems you describe.
