Hey guys,
Got a bit of an issue with my p75 engine (in my panda 4x4)
so ive not driven or used Fallout for about 10 months. the last time i used it, it was fine. i have occasionally started it to move it around where it is parked up.
a few days ago i have had to move it and oh.. somethings not right.
so when i try to throttle it up it misfiring and back firing and takes a while to "spool" up to the desired RPM. its like it injecting way to much fuel..
the fault does not go away no matter what temp the engine is.
i have a vacuum gauge fitted that tells me its.. ok. (its never had a great vacuum always sits in the "drive" rather than "idle" location.) never been an issue before.
there was a perished vacuum pipe going to the MAP that i fixed. other vacuum pipes checked with no leaks.
i am using a generic in line fuel pump (that has given me no issues before)
the timing marks all line up fine (not long had the timing belt, water pump and other things changed been driving fine before parking it up)
i have been told the temp sensor can give some interesting issues? is this the one on the back of the intake manifold?
does it have an air temp sensor that could also give issues?
and for those who wonder what project fallout is..

Thanks guys!
