Gday all,

The Car: 98 xh ute 140000km 4l I6, pacemakers, 2.5 inch system, hi flow cat and muffler, crow stage 2, AU head, 10mm leads and a king dragon filter, auto.

The Prob: When i start the car at anytime and need to plant the foot within 2 minutes of starting the car it splutters and almost stalls then will suddenly take off. This has only recently started occurring along with a slightly rougher idle but suprisingly the car feels a tad more responsive when it is warm.

i thought it may be some timing issue????? would a dyno visit be of use?????? i don't have a vernier cam gear.

cheers lads

any advice would be well pleasing

The splutter then go sort of sounds like it is over fueling, then burning off as the revs rise.

Leaking injector?
Any smoke of any description?
Could it be the auto entering too high a gear?
When were the rings last done? (doubt it's that though)

Check ignition timing. Also could be the trottle position sensor, or MAP sensor.

no smoke. how do you check the sensors???

MADXF

have you checked spark leads, plugs, dizzy cap and rotor buton?

I'd start there.
