If she did a ring seal you are putting it in the wrong hole.

Lol last line killed it , the only think I havnt looked at or checked is my fuel pressure regulator , fuel pump has been rewired and triple checked , it's weired how it only happens when it warms up , that's what is killing me

She muffled something into the pillow, couldn't work it out at the time. Maybe that was it....

Sorry for the hack mate, but yeh its a weird issue to have alright. I have had issues with 2 cars in the past doing similar things. 1 was a dodgy connection for an immobiliser (after spending over 2k in parts) and the other was a hall effect sensor with a hairline crack. I feel for you mate. Hope it sorts out soon champ.

hey mate, been running on e85 for 3 years now, changed spark plugs and gapped them, if the gaps are not correct then the car will start splattering up on boost, but its not doing that, its more like jolting

Could it be a dodgy MAP sensor? (misreading air and so "flooding" engine when warm)

 

P.S. How many beers do I win if right?

Being from Tasmania....you will win cider...no beers.

[rvrftw]

LOL... funny you should mention that...

Local bottleshop was selling Rekorderlig ciders for $1 per bottle.

Unfortunately they only had 43 bottles LOL

Did you buy some nurofen for the preservative headache that follows a heavy cider binge?

I love these threads!

If it only does it while it's warming up then i'm guessing your coolant temp sensor is bung.

Are you data logging at all?

[KNGGSR]

clutz, coolant temp sensor is working fine, on a mircotech as soon as u go on the laptop it will tell u what and what isnt working, coolant temp sensor sits on 85 degrees witch is good ..

Have you checked the map sensor?

This happens to me intermittantly...sometimes Check Engine Light comes on.

I just check the cables plugged to the ECU are nice and tight, start it up again and the symptoms disappear.

It tends to happen when I got a tall passenger in the front seat and he's shaking/moving his leg close to the ECU.
