Fresh Recruit
Hi folks im new to this site but have had a good few gt turbo/glanza's over the last 3 years,
i bought a 1995 gt turbo starlet last week with the engine knoching. Got it home and striped out the engine to discover that the cambelt pully had broke causing the oil pump to cut out and the belt jumped. The exhaust side of the turbo was also sitting inside in the turbo retired for good.
Put a new engine and new turbo into car a few days ago put in new plugs oil filters got it all going and timed it. car idles perfect but the second i give it full throttle in any gear it began missfiring and was very underpowered. If i was gentle on throttle i can drive it but still missed and jumped and struggled to go up hills or in 5th gear on flat road. This was with very little throttle at low levels of psi.
Put a new coilpack distribitor new plug leads and new ht lead on today and timed it again. The car is 100 times better and allows more throttle and more boost but still the second i give it full throttle it jumps to 11 psi winds down to 6 psi and goes back to 11 psi meanwhile the car is jumping and fighting to go and is very underpowered. since last nite when this happens it runs a fault code light. All the ignition system has been changed yet it still feels lik its missing and i highly doubt it is fuel cut as it happens from bout 8 psi on. any help would be greatly appreciated as i am fit to stick an axe through my block. there is a 2 port actuator with the high low bypassed. The second nipple is left exposed as when i blank it off car runs a very low level of boost.
