Hi All
Car has been playing up recently. I have an ek9 with a b18c dropped in and a skunk 2 pro series intake.
Firstly, the problem - on cold morning the car starts and then dies straight away, needs a bit of throttle when starting and then it's fine. It's only just started doing this. Previously it would start from cold no problems at all.
Driving about, car is ok while it was warming up, but once warm it has a strange misfire/hesitation. It's done it twice so far and both times I was in 5th gear accelerating up a hill. I was probably about at half throttle and the car just jerked, so I left off and then slowly applied the gas. same thing again, so shifted down and it was ok till I got home (but only drove a mile or so) I've not driven the car since.
Any ideas what might be causing the problem? Had a quick search and looks like it might be related to the distributor perhaps? I wanted to clean out the iacv, but I can't find it. I found the post on the forum with regards to cleaning, but I'm not sure if my skunk intake has somehow replaced the iacv?
