So I managed to idle it out of the way and was watching my torque scanner and everytime I gave it power it would pull timing to around -1.5 degrees and just cough and splutter. I turned it off let it cool down for 10 minutes, went for a short drive and was all good but after 30 seconds it started pullling timing and cutting fuel hard again. Managed to turn it off and let it cool down again. Got to the servo only just after some coughing and splating when I got there. Filled her up from 1/4 full and she behaved perfectly the whole trip home. Its done this twice before both on hot days both idling for extended periods. Now im thinking this could be an issue with the fuel pumps themselves (I think they are a DW300 as its the first style of kpm twin intank 300lph units before the went to their own pump) or an issue with cooked fuel causing a pressure issue? All I know is Cylinder head temps were good (120 degrees), Coolant temp was also good (Floating around high 90s), IATs (61 Degrees). Doesnt make sense Anyone have an idea?

Not a fan of the KPM setup either after seeing the pics of it torn down in Jim's GT thread on AFF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Walbros anyway 044s aren't e85 rated (500 hours now I believe) Could be the reg as well. Could be alot things but I just want to run e85 full time for the manual swap so walbros it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
