Badgerman85 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 so for a while my car occasionally pops and misfires and splutters when going round sharpish corners...but now it just completely cuts out, like literally just stalls, happened about 3 times while i was driving around town, go to turn a corner and pffft she just stalls.... any ideas??
4-Door Pete Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 Hi, sounds like fuel starvation. Are you running an electric fuel pump?
Badgerman85 Posted October 21, 2009 Author Report Posted October 21, 2009 yea its a leccy fuel pump, why would it be cutting out on corners though? and its like pretty much brand new, only been in the car for about 5000 miles??

4-Door Pete Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 I think the pressure should be 4psi. I have a weber tuning book at home I'll double check and let you know.

Joe-ashtonmobile Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 put 4 psi through it, and by by carbs they will wash away
SmokeEm Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 It should be 2.5psi Mike Check the connections etc, might be damp, loose etc
Badgerman85 Posted October 21, 2009 Author Report Posted October 21, 2009 could it be an ignition problem?
