Quote from: olly-civicthats funny cos when i wasnt using my rex and it was just going in and out of the garage it used to floor and id take the plugs out, dry them, take the fuel pump relay out and wang it over a bit, put um back in and it would start, now i could leave it running for 10 minutes and the next day it would floor the same, it needed a good toasting up the road to clear it out to stop it doing it, once or twice i also had white smoke comming from the turbo area after it had flooded, not sure why, could have just been the flooded petrol filling the exhaust manifold and weeping out the gaskets, i think taking the motor out is a bit drastic


Ok... maybe a bit drastic. But I\'m a bit stuck here. lol. Everyone tends to be saying it\'s rebuild time.

I had it running for 5mins and it still stalled when no revs. I can\'t risk trying to take it for a hammering incase I get stuck somewhere!.. lol

dude you don\'t even know whats up yet. Get the fault diagnosed properly before ripping the engine out.
