Hey all, running my car in my field today and it had been fine all day. took it in, and didnt use it for an hour or so, then after when i was running it was bogging at high speed, and too lean for a little bit at low speed. when i looked, the little 'nipple' or nozzle which connected the backpressure line to the exhaust was wobbly, was it this, or just tuning problems?
also, the fuel i was using looked a little bit weak in colour...
thanks, matt.
 
Yeah, did it run better after you fixed it? You probably didn't have enough fuel pressure, causing it to bog.
 
That's why I did not answer this thread....you had the answer all along. It's better that YOU put 2 and 2 together instead of me telling you. Good job man, some people would not even look at their car. They just post it does not work and expect us to push the majic "fix all key" on our keyboards..
This is not directed at you, but some new guys and older guys in general as well. If you have not even read your manual or tried to look at the car to see what's wrong, or bothered to read the stickies on these forums, chances are we don't want to help. Why help people who will not try to help themselves? I learned by getting my hands dirty, getting mad and having catostrophic failures one after another....Doing research and trial and error are the best teachers IMO.

Amen to that brother! I answer alot of 'no brainers', but I'm starting to ignore some as well. Some of them are so easy I just can't believe they took the time to post. This post is not directed at anyone in particular either.
