help my 4age now sounds like a subaru!!!???

[SpeedRacer]

umm, yea as above, was driving round town quietly, went to floor it and it sound like a wrx crossed with a harley now.
Don't know why, just happened, at forst thought it was just my car trying to stall (low revs in 2nd gear)

car is an AE92 trueno with a red top 16v tvis

thinking it is either a sparker not firing? but when you hit 4.5-5.5k rpm it goes back to normal, feels like a turbo kicking in

any help appreciated

It will be a miss fire of some sort. First thing to do is check and replace as needed the spark plugs, leads, distributor cap and rotor.

its like a constant miss fire. is it lethal?

sounds exactly like a subaru

mine did exactly same in town as well sounds mean lol it was just the leads to tight so 1 had pulled out of dizzy, only harms the fuel bill i hope

hav fixed it by trial and error, sparker #2 is out :S

if it ddnt affect power i'd leave it, it'll use more fuel, but u shldnt notice it. hopefully

Anyone selling a set of TRD sparkers? might as well get some good ones.
