Bump

Anyone? Tried cleaning icv today then started it up she idled fine until warm then as I drove approaching corners clutch pressed in she fucking stalls....

My battery is in the boot and I noticed the negative was sort of on but was lose. Could this cause the car to die? Also battery died that's why I haven't took it back out after tightening the neg up. Can flat batteries have an effect on idle?

The misfire to me has gone but I am running a ph3 cam unmapped and is hard to tell.

Any other way of testing if all four pistons are fireing ?

Also if my timing was out by a tooth would that have an effect as I would of though it wouldn't of even started. But starts and doesn't stall till I drive it.

sounds like a predator ecu with a re-map would sort all your shizzle mate.

No expert...
