So were you speeding or did your fuel pump just cut out? If you were speeding I hope it wasn't on public roads

[lilRillo]

Wasnt speeding at all was going up a mountain in my town and then i started to bog at higher rpms then i went to my lot and did a second gear 40 roll and BAM bogged at 5k rpms when it shoulda been 7k

sounds fishy...

[lilRillo]

as in it could be more then my sh*ty stock fuel pump? once i put it in i was going to get a tune too

So you were speeding

jk, but in all seriousness, did you have enough gas in the tank? If it bogged up hill, you might have a fuel pick up problem

[lilRillo]

yeah man had a quarter of a tank and ive been close to E before and never hit fuel cut

[LugNut18]

haha we have the same number of posts..........not anymore , I'm winning

Did it only cut out going up hill?

[lilRillo]

It could be, I have my own fuel pump problems to deal with too. Chances are I'll be replacing it with a 255 as wel

[lilRillo]

nope on flat ground too

Lol should have worded this thread differnt. Now everyone thinks that you were going 110. But anyway throw a inline fuel pressure gauge on it and monitor your fuel pressure, should be 36-40psi with a good pump.

[lilRillo]

lol only 60 on my private lot and 40 up the hill speed limit was 35 , how much does one run? and the car runs fine and low rpms its just higher rpms it hits it hard

That was the next thing I was gonna say. If fuel pressure is good, maybe you have an ignition miss. Maybe a bad ground somewhere.

Hmm well i am bringing it to a local shop tomorrow for further inspection, hopefully it is just the fuel pump not giving enough gas to the engine at higher rpms but who knows

I know the KA is different from the Sr, but I had the same problem. Turns out I had some bad grounds, I fixed them, and had no problem since but good luck.

[lilRillo]

Yeah that could be the prob too idk ill have them check it all out but i still wanna get the wallbro 255 and a tune 18 lbs of boost!

Damn, that's gonna be nice.

[lilRillo]

hahah thanks man ill keep you guys posted on it

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Could be many other things.

[lilRillo]

Such as....

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Is your speedo working? It could trick the ECU into hitting the speed limiter.

Could be the ECU itself.

Speed sensor.

And probably some other things I can't think about off the top of my head.

[lilRillo]

Speedo and rpms works and fuel n temp both work... idk it was really random tho because yesterday car ran fine then today this happens. weird. but hopefully its not my ECU i really hope its just my fuel pump just cant keep up anymore, it is stock and im pretty sure its still the original so it has 170k miles on it.
