89920, fuel cut still
Posted by boosted60trimrst, Sep-23-05 12:46 AM
i have a missing link the one with the pinhole filter on the side . the problem is every once in a while i still get a fuel cut . like the only time is once in a while if i just slightly hold the peddle down ,about 1/4 of the way down . after about 6 seconds of holding the pedal 1/4 of the way down i get a fuel cut.only when not boosting . does anybody know why this is happening ? missing link is clean too

Sounds like misfire, not fuel cut.

Likely not. Try new plugs and wires too if you haven't replaced them recently.

Some people's ECU's are insanely sensitive, with my old setup I went through 2 missing links and 3 voltage clamps and never could fix it entirely. Eventually it was manageable, but there was always a small glitch right around 0 psi.

yea its the ecu...i initially thought it was my bov, then tried replacing the missing link, then replaced a few other things and nothing seemed to fix it. Just get used to it cuz its there to stay.

Good luck with it... The best band-aid fix I could find was setting the clamp to around 4.3-4.4 volts which gives it an room for error. This will make the mixture a tad leaner if you are running with the stock ECU, but you can always adjust for it with an FPR.

All my fuel cut problems went away went I took the missing link off. I run an S-afc though. I also try the voltage clamp, didn't work.
