Hello all...
Christ it seems like a long time since I've been on here, forgot my password and never got round to getting a new one.. anyway...
I'm having a rather major problem with my coupe at present, I'm beginning to think it may well be on its last legs!
When I start the car from cold (left overnight or over 5 hours) the car runs perfectly, pulls like a car with 240hp should! Also, I can drive it for hours and its still fine.
However, if I start the car when its warm (started any time after 20 mins of leaving it up until its cold again) the engine management light comes on and doesnt go off, my AFR gauge shows it running in LEAN even when under load and the car runs quite literally like a bag of sh*t! Misfiring would be one term I'd use although it sounds like its not firing on all cylinders?! if revved past 3k and allowed to settle it pop's and bang's very loudly out of the exhaust and although it sounds quite cool I'm pretty sure its over/underfueling like crazy.
I've got absolutely no idea what it could be as if it was terminal it would be like it all the time and not just when its warm!
I'm a bit limited by time and money at present as looking to move out so hopefully someone may have a clue what it is, FF hasn't ever let me down yet
Regards,
Dan
