sputter when parked and engine is idling post mrev2 install
I am getting what I think may be a little mis-fire or something when parked and idling. Sort of a sputter or somthing every couple of seconds. The sputter is very pronounced too meaning I can feel it sort of shake the car.
This defintely wasnt present before my install of the mrev v2 and the 5/16th spacer and I do not recall it happening on saturday. I didnt drive any where on sunday. I would appreciate you thoughts. Thanks. |
Make shure all of the vacum hoses are connected and not loose, also check the gasket between the lower plenium and upper plenium for a full seal, and also check the gasket between the engine and the plenium to make shrue that it is on correctly. I had the same problem when I put my mrev 2 on yesterday but my engine ran a hole lot rougher when running. My gasket between the upper plenium and lower plenium wasn't sealed correctly and was overlaped in one place, and i had a vacum hose that come off when reinstalling the upper plenium.

definately sounds like a vaccum leak!
The sputtering is coming from the engine sucking in unmetered air. I missed one of the vaccum lines when I did mine. I forgot about the one on the back of the throttle body. |
make sure you didnt snag the oil neck...that is #1 cause of leaks, also check the throttle body bolts

I had to retighten the planum bolts. very supprised at how loose that became after less than a days worth of mild driving.
Thanks for the help!! |
