HG sympytoms?
« on: 31 December 2009, 13:38:54 »
Me again,

Right, after my coolant dump on a spirited drive I fixed the leak and it seems to be running ok, except when I blip the throttle after leaving it to idle for a little bit, then I get what I can only assume is a misfire  :'(

Has my HG gone?

If you blip it from idle it does make like a hiccup should we say, don't normally just pick up straight away.

Mine don't anyway

I know, but I am wondering what could cause this hesitation....

wouldn't the system blow up pressure and blow pipes off before fans cut?

Crank sensor it is, then....

Probably as a result of the cable being distrurbed, and already brittle, hence finishing it off, when the cooler job was done....

It doesn't always just result in starting problems - sometimes stalling, cutting out, hesitation..... and general poor running, if the ECU doesn't know where the crank is at..  :y

Whrn my crank sensor was defective, it would start up ok and then cut later.

Will this affect emissions at all?
