Stalling at WOT
Stalling at WOT
Hey guys, just a quick question. I'm guessing fuel pump, but maybe someone has a better idea than I do.
Driving yesterday, and punched it to pass someone, and halfway through my pass, the revs drop, then come back up, then drop then come back up... I managed to get it back to normal. Later that night, I pulled up next to a beaumont, & couldnt resist, so i punched it, and the revs dropped again, then it died. I rolled to a stop, and it took me a good 20 seconds to start it again, then drove it home (tediously) without any problems. It just started doiung this. Any ideas?

Fuel filter is a good starting point.
If that doesn't help get a fuel pressure gauge up to your windshield to check if your fuel pump is bad. Then get a scanner like winaldl and check to see where your BLMs are at, might just be a bad o2 sensor. Things like stalling can be from a number of things, but usually they're a fuel issue. Rarely does an ignition system advance the timing so much that the engine shuts down.... that takes some skill to even get it to start
, let alone run.
