I would hate to do the retune with united 100 and have similar thing happen. Edited 08/12/13 01:32 PM by GeGe6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuner suspects fuel is contaminated with 95Ron or bad batch! Would like to get to bottom of it and will start with getting fuel tested to rule it in or out.

Z2TT Member 714 Member For: 12y 8m 7d Posted 08/12/13 03:10 PM Share Posted 08/12/13 03:10 PM (edited) I would have asked to get the tank drained and filled with fresh 98 while it was still at the workshop.Could have been a bad batch of fuel or a mix between 2 different fuels, try driving it a while and filling up so you have 98 in thereonly, it seems that BP is the preferred one then get it tuned again.After the pinging is ruled out then you can see how the car drives.With about 300rwkw, I'm happy for the most part with how mine goes after a tune, it's not the bestas there are some things that I just haven't had time to get checked out but it will definitelybe quicker everywhere and get upto speed faster.Your dyno graph seems fine to me and making the power but I guess your having some sort of issue after that Edited 08/12/13 03:17 PM by Z2TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is though if it is not the fuel then it could be a waste of time and money getting it retuned. If you google fuel testing Perth, there are a couple of places that do it but it's not cheap. Mick, if it was me I would also change the intake pump. You can get a replacement drop in cradle for around 300 with a high flow welbro pump.

Otherwise if you want to supply or fit yourself you can get one of these http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=290601707527They also have e85 pumps and bigger cradle pots etc.http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=261241856172 Edited 08/12/13 11:29 PM by XtRmn8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
