No, every time I ask someone if they know how to do it, they all tell me there's no point because EF's dont give you any codes, but people on here seem to get heaps of info out of it, lol.

I wouldnt know how to do one anyway.

check the fuel pump relay.it can create this sort of issues. it is mounted with a couple of others near the battery and connections can be affected by corrosion. just see how the connections look and wriggle it around a bit, maybe try a different relay

Another waste of money, map sensor didnt fix it, if anything its worse.
Its kinda like a vaccume leak, but its intermident. of there is no fuel for a split second.
changed the hose too... pump relay next..
maybe even injectors... maybe tps

I'm thinking now maybe wiring issue with IAC / TPS or the crank angle sensor.

I dont spose any of you blokes could tell me the correct test data for putting a multimeter across the IAC and TPS? Also the crank angle sensore? I did do a search and had a good look thru the tech doco section, but could find what I was looking for.



just had one like this in my workshop....ECU!!!

So is that a new unit job, or can they be re flashed or something. Silly question, I know, but they arent cheap.

Hey, if I had to replace my ecu, would it be worth getting an after market one? lol

is it Auto?
Mine did this for months everytime i slowed down the revs dropped, and also stalled if i didn't give it some, but this was only until i hit 80km/h+ which is when the converter locks and when you slow down it's ment to release mine never did unless i gave it some, i would check it.

Acidic
