Hey legends. Got an issue I can't seem to work out.
Ba turbo. Has Bosch 440 injectors, Walbro 342 pump, valve springs and flapper mod.
I have an intermittent fault where under light throttle it will lean out (on the afr guage ) and will pop from front (sound alike airbox area) and not accelerate. It happens at low revs. For example cruising along at 60 and road goes uphill so you increase the throttle slightly it will lean out/pop or on freeway at 110 if you give it a little bit (before it kicks down) it'll do the same.
The fault is intermittent as some days it runs faultlessly.
If you put your boot in and it kicks down and hits boost its fine. No issue.
Things I've done.
- replace fuel pressure reg
- replace O2 sensor
- replace plugs
- check for vac leaks (car pulls very good vacuum according to the guage)
I did pull the fuel pump and the wiring from the Walbro pump up to the top of the cradle was melted. I have replaced the cable with no luck.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same issue and could guide me on what to test next as I've run out of ideas and I'm pulling my hair out.
Cheers legends
