Misfire in 1st

Recommended Posts

When driving my 16v, occasionally, but getting more regularly, when in 1st gear only, it will feel like its misfiring. When i change into 2nd it goes away!

 

Has anyone else had this problem, what would be causing it?

its probably just misfiring at low revs - sub 2000

you only really see sub 2000 in first.

 

check the usual stuff - airflow sensor connections, lambda probe etc . . . .

 

its a tough one to judge!!

i had problems like this recently which gradually got worse to the point where on 2 occasions it just stopped.

 

I needed a new distributor

 

 

I cried :cry:
