rokkie Member 87 Member For: 12y 6m 29d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide, SA Posted 07/11/12 09:18 AM Share Posted 07/11/12 09:18 AM hi, I had a similar issue with mine when I got it, it felt like it was surging. Turns out it was the plugs the gap was 1.2mm so put a set of genuine plugs and re-gapped them to .7mm... did a pcm re-calibration for the mags and all good now. I did find the exhaust and inlet manifold bolts a little loose. Hope this helps. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82749-xr6-turbo-issues-sluggish/page/2/#findComment-1322021 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put a new set of GENUINE ford coils in if that turns out to be the issue 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82749-xr6-turbo-issues-sluggish/page/2/#findComment-1322043 Share on other sites More sharing options...
