Brick wall on 5th gear
Brick wall on 5th gear
im not sure what happens but just started doing this recently. whenver i do a WOT pull on 5th gear ONLY, car studders like hitting a brick wall, psi jumps up to 34psi, my psi is set to 24. i was thinking maybe a fuel cut but i have upgraded to walbro 255 long time ago. it started doing this..any ideas?
Saw a thread similar to this not so long ago. Fuel cut won't be triggered by lack/excess of fuel by the fuel pump. It's triggered when your boost goes over a preset limit for over a preset amount of time. (ie if boost stays over 25 psi for longer than 1 second).
It looks like your boost is spiking and fuel cut is kicking in to stop you leaning out and doing serious damage. The guy in the last thread I saw pulled a P0234 code which is wastegate system fault. I would start with the wastegate.
