thamouse1981 0 Posted October 4, 2004 on my way to work this morning it was raining heavily about half a mile into the journey my vr6 began to be very sluggish and then would pick up normally seemed to be lurching this went on for about half a mile then ran perfect for the rest of the trip i did have a crack in the coil pack but sealed it with silca set could this be at fault or something else fuel filter etc??

biggerbigneil 0 Posted October 4, 2004 Might be worth just checking all the connections (HT leads especially) and drying everything off! If you've re-sealed the coilpack recently it shouldn't be a problem but if a year or so ago could have cracked? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 4, 2004 Sounds a lot like the coilpack. That epoxy resin repair trick never works for long. Replacement is the only cure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted October 4, 2004 After an amusingly lurchy / interrupted drive to work in the downpour this morning (in my dads old Merc estate, NOT the Rado) i'd have to agree and say that its something electrical like the coil pack or leads. Dads car is fine one minute - heavy rain overnight, and then its not starting, juddering at low revs, lurching, etc.. dried out this afternoon in the sun, quick spray of WD40 on the leads, runs like normal again.
