Rotarytech7 · 05-20-2010, 06:20 PM

Hey guys, I've been having problems with my FC...I decided to push the car alittle today and when I was taking off I started losing power once I got to around 5500rpms in all the gears..I had enough gas and I had just changed the oil..wat could be the cause? Thanks

sorry but we're going to need more information. We don't even know if it's NA or Turbo

Its an 89 N/A

Modifications?

I think it might be a problem with the injectors. Probably clogged injectors.

6 ports working?

What do you mean losing power? Like it's cutting out completely? Feels like it's down about 15 hp? Hesitating? Etc...

thats around the RPM where the vdi kicks in, so unless its total power loss it could be the cause

The 6 ports are working and didnt cut out completely its like it was struggling to to hit the higher rpms ...I dnt know if any of u have played Gran Turismo but its kinda like wen u top out the car and its at its peak but then it drops a couple of hundred rpms then it goes back up..
