Featured Replies

Quick one .........

Any ideas.

It's whilst under load, I'm due to change the plugs so I am leaning at this atm.

TIA

Every time I had missing at high rpm high boost was always plugs. :D even though I changed lots of coil packs as well while trying to sort out

Sorted, new plugs done the trick.

It was a bit oily down there, looks like spillage though as one under the vac can was clean other three were really bad, may have been me at some point, not sure.

At what point does the boost drop of normally, as when I was testing last night it occured to me that I very rarely rev over 5 k, so tonights job is the M4 late !!!

Italian tune up FTW

Won't be spillage, more likely a leaky cam cover gasket.

Point at which it drops off will depend what you have done on the intake side of things.

It dropped off at just over 6k, aint revved that high in long time lol

Trouble is what ever gear your in 6k is gonna land you court lmao.

@ Raf, I got a new gasket set to fit, is there a good way to clean out whats there, as I undid the plugs there was a air escaping sound and then a trickle down, the plug socket was covered in oil too, and nice plume of blue on the start up for a couple of seconds

Pass lol was too lazy to clean it out, had no bad effects from it, just got the garage to change the gasket when they did the timing belt
