turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 23y 5m 16d Gender: Male Posted 26/02/15 01:52 AM Posted 26/02/15 01:52 AM I don't think its the pump. Just trying to see whether the problem is resolved takes days of driving. In my car the stalling was so adhoc. So you think something you did fixed it cause it was fine for a day and then it would do it.The car drove fine prior to the tune. It does not after the tune. The problem surrounds what has been done.Tell him to put the original injectors and tune back in and start from scratch again. Otherwise you may chase something that is not there.

As turbotrana said though I could start it again tonight and it might start happening again.Tuner suggested a new fuel filter. I guess that's my next option for now unless he thinks its in the tune.

turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 23y 5m 16d Gender: Male Posted 26/02/15 03:16 AM Posted 26/02/15 03:16 AM Its hard enough trying to diagnose anything with minimal info. I hope you sort it out. I am just relaying my experience. Mine would also not stall when coming to a slow stop but would when coming to a more sudden stop.Goodluck. But please tell us when you have solved it so that we all know what it was. 1
Mark_Googs Member 95 Member For: 13y 3m 9d Gender: Male Location: Western Suburbs Posted 26/02/15 03:43 AM Posted 26/02/15 03:43 AM Yeah I will keep everyone updated as things happen. Its good to hear other opinions from everyone here because it would seem at this point even the tuner doesn't have a definitive idea of what the problem is.

Mark_Googs Member 95 Member For: 13y 3m 9d Gender: Male Location: Western Suburbs Posted 26/02/15 06:42 AM Posted 26/02/15 06:42 AM another update.....car still stalls on full tank lol. Must've just got lucky last night! F*$K
Mark_Googs Member 95 Member For: 13y 3m 9d Gender: Male Location: Western Suburbs Posted 27/02/15 05:11 AM Posted 27/02/15 05:11 AM after carefully looking through the tune, my tuner has spotted what he thinks is the problem and its in the transmission tune. I am taking the car back in tomorrow at 10am so fingers crossed this is the issue. I will let you guys know the outcome.
