ugy Donating Members 199 Member For: 19y 5m 28d Location: Auckland Posted 17/07/06 09:23 AM Share Posted 17/07/06 09:23 AM Hi guys, been having a problem with the T missing and surging down the strip.It happens about 2 thirds down and does it every time.I have had the valve springs done so that wont be the problem. I thought it might be the fuel pump (which it sounds like) but every one I suggest it to reckons it wouldnt be. I have had it on the dyno to try and find out but nothing shows up. Would be grateful if somebody can help out. Thanks. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26932-missing-and-surging/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

shockF6 Member 478 Member For: 19y 6m 14d Location: Melbourne Posted 17/07/06 09:32 AM Share Posted 17/07/06 09:32 AM if the fuel in your tank is lower than the top of the intank pump housing then you are probably running out of fuel in the "slosh tank". Try sticking to more than 1/2 a tank in your car when running WOT for long periods of time.another option is to install a surge tank under the bonnet Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26932-missing-and-surging/#findComment-407975 Share on other sites More sharing options...
