Fire it back up and continue my day without missing a beat. Now tonight I was driving along doing 60 and bang she stalls again, I pull over and get out the flash tuner thinking maybe the clown that owned my ute before me had some stupid setting making it run like I pig so I return it to "f" setting, ok shes ready to go again, 10 minutes after it starts shuddering when I put my foot down and sounding like a, its not firing right or b its loosing air from the cooler pipes etc. any ideas would be appreciated.
