Don't want to sound condescending but you are using the full length of travel of the accelerator pedal, as TB suggests, including into the kickdown switch??      

Does the 3.2 actually have a kickdown 'switch' in the pedal assembly, or does the ECU just look for max deflection on the throttle pedal pot?

Could be a dicky pedal pot maybe - live data would, I presume, read out the current value for that so it could be checked..

Yep, any harder and the foot would be through the floor

Smooth & refined but gutless until the front multiram kicks in at 4000rpm is a symptom of the rear multiram not functioning IIRC  :-/

Well tonight, booted it on a dual carriageway from 30 upwards - and it seemed to be hesitating a lot in the UPPER part of the rev range.

I have also taken a live data 'recording' while the car's been driven (hard and normal) for the engine and gearbox - they are half a megabyte each though, not sure how I could get them uploaded, as don't have any web space....

[Andy H]

Note - I have done the output tests on both multirams - both of which operate absolutely fine...

What does the output test measure? Would it tell you if the rear multi ram was seized or leaking? Or if the pipe was split?

[TheBoy]

Can you not create a proper snapshot with that?

[omegod]

Forgive me for being dim but how do you" see" the multirams working? the front vac tank on mine has been bypassed for some reason and Im not sure both are working, I do get a shove at 4000rpm though.

Sure sign they are not working

James.............
are the plenums and multirams different or interchangeable from 3.0 to 3.2?


If so, have a spare plenum and multirams sitting in my garage you can piddle about with...........??

Thanks Mike!

I'm afraid the plenums are different (No EGR, ICV on the 3.2) - and they have electronically controlled throttles etc.

Thanks for the offer, though
