BOOSTING BA Member 16 Member For: 12y 11m 26d Gender: Male Posted 22/07/12 07:14 AM Share Posted 22/07/12 07:14 AM Hey guys I baught my ba xr6 turbo about 2 months ago its a manual with bigger inter cooler, cappa flash tune, bigger air box, k&n air filter, 2 1/2" exhaust, 3" dump pipe, and blow off valve. It has just clicked over 107000km. It has never been on the dyno, full log book service. When I got it I had no problems at all, I even took it to melb with no problems,. In the last 2-3 weeks it has started stalling. I would be driving along and pull up at the lights and it will be ideling away than it will just stall with out me touching anything. Or I will put my foot on the clutch coming to a stop and the revs will drop than go to idle than drop than go to idle and stay at idle. Now the clutch has started to slip so its needing to be replaced but I dont think that's my problem. If anyone can help it would be amazing. Thanks for any help.

Is the idle rough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I havent heard a standard one at idle haha.T/B is throttle body,Take the crossover set up off and clean the internals of the throttle body with carby clean or something similar.Get someone to turn the ign key on without starting the engine and put their foot flat to the floor on the accelerator which opens the throttleblade and spray a reasonable amount in there.It gets rid of alot of sh*t that gunks up in there. It can help with alot of stalling issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
