Also have u done an intank pump or is the sock on the intank filter.<br /> Edited 09/10/12 09:46 AM by turbowelshy89 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82251-surge-at-the-end-of-the-14/page/2/#findComment-1307053 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not that will most likely be giving you issues.Edit: Just saw Kroozin's pic. I ran a tank of octane booster for a day at Calder in my old car and managed to blow the end off one of my spark plugs :/ Edited 09/10/12 09:07 PM by rbjet Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82251-surge-at-the-end-of-the-14/page/2/#findComment-1307210 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_4.0 Member 1,096 Member For: 14y 2m 25d Posted 09/10/12 11:53 PM Share Posted 09/10/12 11:53 PM Octane booster stains iridium plugs. The plug can't burn it off again. It causes misfires and blow outs. Steer clear. I've had same happen to me. Anyone know if injector cleaner does the same to iridium plugs?
