kimford741 Inactive Members 1 Member For: 14y 8m 24d Posted 30/07/10 09:54 AM Share Posted 30/07/10 09:54 AM hi guys, just chasing some ideas because I am really not enjoying the T like I used to.I have an 04turbo 5speed ute while slowing down to stop and rolling slowly in neutral, the revs will fluctuate from 500rpm to 800rpm and sometimes stall also when sitting and idling. The funny thing is, it will do it regularly but with no real consistency. The main problem though when under load, it will break down from 3 grand and up and start coughing. I have replaced fuel and air filter, plugs and leads. When I replaced plugs and leads it seemed to improve but after a couple of days it was back to breaking down again. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Cheers. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/69725-breaking-down-under-load/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know cos I kept looking so I could see if any one could share light on my problem. well polugs for me didnt work but guess what coils did.Oh and I left my leads standard, they are good for 2000hp so I hear Edited 30/07/10 01:40 PM by 400KwXr6t Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/69725-breaking-down-under-load/#findComment-1028898 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the feeling feels like the car is going to drop dead when you come to a stop.
