duckdown_hoodrat 0 Posted November 1, 2011 Hi Guys, My rado has developed a problem where once up to temp/after 15/20 mins driving there is a noticeable drop in power (very flat), becomes very loud through exhaust and pops on over run. There is no juddering at all but does sometimes need a bit of gas to start. so any ideas what i should try first? Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted November 1, 2011 sounds like it could be timing. Once it comes off the cold start map the engine will behave differently. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wullie 1 Posted November 1, 2011 That sounds very similar to mine when the Crank bolt loosened and allowed the crank pulley to move out of alignment. A quick check is to compare the positions of the timing marks on the crankshaft pulley and the flywheel. If all is OK they should line up. You may notice the crank pulley wobbling when the engine is running if the bolt has loosened. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duckdown_hoodrat 0 Posted November 1, 2011 Cheers guys. a quick note, if i turn it off and on while driving it generally clwars it. also if it was crank bolt wouldnt it be constant as it does snap in and out of it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
