Been havin a bit of a problem with my xr6 lately, when I give it a boot from the start its feelin like its strugiling for fuel, starts splattering and feels like its going to die, but once I pick up a bit of speed it stops.. cant even get the wheels spinning anymore.. any ideas what it would be?

its had injectors and cooler done, making 330rwkw on a 12psi tune...

time 4 a new fuel pump maybe??

cheers..

Fuel pump dying possibly. Do you fang it much when you are low on fuel, ie under 80 on range left? That kills them apparently..

BA? MAYBE Coil packs, they need a change after approx 80,000km.. mine struggled and spluttered higher in the rev range when they were rooted.

I guess fuel pump at 150 odd dollars might be the cheapest place to start, unless you

get some coil pack from ebay, genuine ones can be found for ~$180ish. IF you do coils, best to do the plugs while your in there too. Cant hurt, and not expensive.

Would change fuel filter too while your at it.

It'll probably be one of those obvious things, cant imagine it would anything more major, it never really is.

Good luck, let us know what it was.

Yep, get onto a dyno and log a run.

No point guessing as it could be spark related ( plugs / coils ) or fuel supply ( filters / pump)
