damo_magoo Member 2 Member For: 15y 3m 23d Posted 18/05/10 08:08 AM Share Posted 18/05/10 08:08 AM (edited) Recently through a rod in my xr6 turbo. It is an 04 model I have had since new.The old motor was braking up at about 3500rpm, it was like it was straving of fuel.I think the old motor leaned out and through the rod in cylinder 6.The car is stock and not had any modifications.I had replaced coil packs and spark plugs at 120k.The only problem I have now is the replacement motor is doing the same thing.So now I am wondering is it an issue with the computer.Any help would be great.

Close plug gaps first though to .80 or .75 to see if it fixes the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking of buying the Weapon X coils as they don't cost much more than coils from Ford.Has anyone here got the Weapon X coils?Any info would help.
