Rydeit Member 327 Member For: 12y 9m 27d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide S.A Posted 31/03/13 07:41 AM Share Posted 31/03/13 07:41 AM Happy Easter all. Anyway went on an Easter cruise today. Did a few third gear pulls then out of no where car vibrated when I accelerated an threw out some white smoke. Also thought I heard some rattling. To scared to put my foot down now. 1st and 2nd seem fine. Could it be over boosting majorly?? When it vibrated felt like the power was restricted.

Mine has nizpro valve springs which seem to have turned into rubber or foam recently. On a handful of occasions I've experienced similar issues as yourself. I'd be in third cruising and plant it, then when I grab forth the car will carry on and misfire for a few seconds until the engine seems to reset itself back into the correct positions and drive normally again. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/84454-help-please/#findComment-1376287 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any other idea? dont want to be driving the car around if it something serious.
