When my car is cold it starts fine and revs fine but soon as the temperature gauge moves or gets warm and try rev and it just dies and sounds like its starving itself. Map sensor and iat sensor came on so changed the tb and intake manifold and it was the same. So this is what iv done so far. Map sensor, iat sensor, tb and intake mani, fuel filter, unplugged O2 sensor, had the dizzy off and still the same. Starting to get abit annoyed and puzzled because iv never had one do this. I know it's not the timing as it runs perfect and ticks over as it should. Any help? Any ideas? Thanks
 
Try to check fuel filter. It happens to my ek before..
 
Might sound silly but are all the inlet bolts tight? Mine was doing the same was fine aftet i tightened them:angry:
 
Iv had inlet off and sealed back up bud just weird how it's fine when cold but soon as it warms up it dies and struggles to rev
 
All sensors in and around the throttle body tps and that in the right place? Or even the coolant pipes that go in the back are they all right? Will be something silly
 
Yep tried nearly everything spent 2 days on it now and no luck as yet. Another day tomorrow I surpose
 
have you tried your coolant temp sensor?? when i was at TDI-PLC they informed me sometimes when the sensor goes it reads backwards, so when its cold it thinks its at normal temp and when its warmed up it thinks its cold so adds more fuel causing it to choke/overfuel

also check your earth wires, my friends b16a2 wasnt earthing properly and was earthing through the tps saying it was at 70% throttle on wide open
