Engine misses after hard run?
Engine misses after hard run?
My truck will occasionally miss or spit and sputter after a hard run. Once Im stopped, just a little blimp of the throttle will clear it up. Anyone know what causes this? Thanks Bret
hey man i really dont know what causes the miss but when i install my comp box after a hard 5x5 run it seem to miss some also but i really couldnt tell what causes it also if you dont mind i was wanting to know how you like your set with jwa and the smarty and stick i would like to have some detells aslo are you runing this with the stock turbo???thanx mike
It usually happens with a hard fueling box like the TST comp. My regular TST on 9 at the drag strip will do it a little. My guess is that on a hard run you have pretty much drained the VP and it is spitting trying to catch up....ie, no fuel to inject in to the cylinders.
alot of vp44 guys have this problem when running injectors and comp or TST box. just when you run WOT hard like that then let off, the pump just kind of gets hiccup if you wanna call it that, takes a second to straighten back out
Yeah i've never really noticed mine sputtering much but i have air locked the injection lines before after a long hard run and let off instantly,truck just cut out and wouldn't start. Had to crack some injector lines to get it started
i've always had to crack the lines and bleed them

When I put in my 370s two weeks ago I bleed the lines without cracking them.
