hey guys,

can any one help? my car had a flat battery so i charged it and fitted it, since then everytime i drive it and it goes to boost up or with a little throttlle it violently pops and bangs and you have to immediatley back off. therefore at the moment it is undrivable.

It idles fine, revs freely in nuetral, drives but just wont let you put your foot down or go above 2.5k under load? any help i thank in advance

Always good to reset the ecu.

Press on the brake pedal for 30 secs
Reconnect batt

what ecu you got? is the hose for your map sensor in at both ends? also is the map sensor plugged in?

Mr_7

has a stadard ecu on it, i have checked the sensor and all seems ok! the symptoms do look like a map sensor though. I have tried an ecu reset before when it done this and it worked but then it comes back!

TBH this is an on going problem

Mr_7

can anyone tell me what way the inline valve should be pointing (the arrow on the casing), should it be pointed to the map sensor or the plenum?

also when blowing through the vavle shoiuld i feel resistance? (i can blow through mine in both directions without much resistance!)

Jit

its just a filter i think....

the valves should only go 1 way bud.. tink you`ve got iffy valves :)
