pulsing vr6

Recommended Posts

Hey

Ive intermittently had a pulsing through my 93 abv rado, feels just like ur running out of fuel.

I noticed it the other day when crawling along in traffic, car jerks and pulses like a :censored:

Its now progressed to every time when on partial throttle no matter the speed.

Car seems lacking in power but picks up when past 3500 revs

plugged into a vag com and no faults are stored.

nothing obvious hanging off to look at under the bonnet, checked all elec plugs and connections

Had new spitfire plug leads 2500 miles ago same time as a service new charcoal cannister and new fuel filter

Cam sensor and Pickup 800 miles ago

Changed my isv and complete induction hose 800 miles ago for a as new s/h one

 

I did notice a faint fuel smell when parking earlier but no visual leaks at all

 

Got a new set of plugs that ive been meaning to fit but any ideas?

 

The only things under the bonnet that i havent renewed in the 5 years of owning the car are:

air flow meter

fuel pressure reg

coil pack

injectors

loom

knock sensors

crank sensor

Does it only do it on partial throttle (

Just wondering if it's a fueling problem...

 

Cheers,

Hey

It idles pretty evenly, it pulses about when on the very of lightest throttle applications ie crawling in traffic or trying to stay within the speed limits.

When just above and flat out throttle the car behaves as normal, just flat for a vr6
