I told him to bring it backsure enough after driving the car myself it felt as though the accelerator pedal did nothing, no fuel was getting to the engine and it was exrteemly slow (spluttering hardly accelerating at all) and then suddenly at 3000rpm it would take off rapidly.needless to say we returned everything back to factory settings bov in place and all wires checked everything looked fine.a rev of the motor indicated that there was no change.we reset the ecu still no improvement.im totally stumped.. I feel bad for my mate.so if someone anyone can shed some light on the subject it would be great.thanks.brock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle!
