More load up top I guessCheers again Edited 25/03/12 01:09 PM by bionic_oosty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tuner did say the plugs the installed had been gapped by them. And considering it only runs bad until it reaches operating temp, I'm thinking its just a plug gap issue???Cheers, Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
