watfordalex 0 Posted April 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 running abit lumpy it takes a while to rev round (even with the lightened flywheel) and struggles to get past about 4k and just feels really underpowered, i was told to try the plugs first as it may be running on only 4 or 5 cyclinders if some of them are shot? p.s this was after a run out of petrol :$ Also both front shock absorbers and a wheel bearing lolits quite low at the moment so probably wont go any further, would like to get some proper shocks though as the handling is pretty shocking!!

legvw 0 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Have you tried replacing the fuel filter? You might have slightly blocked it running out of fuel, worth a try seeing as though the're peanuts! Link to post Share on other sites
