Not in the slightest, you can give them max on left and right handers while running on fumes.

Hello, if you didn't drive too fast, you wouldn't have the loss of control..


and to think these people passed a driving test.

Then I can understand why you had the problem SB. Unnerving to say the least.

Had it badly in both my Subaru's and so did my mate in his. Ignoring the incident for the moment...it just can't be good for the engine.

Yes you are right of course, lot of high instant loads which are never good for mechanical things. The sudden weak mixture altough very rapid is also not good for an engine.

I know what it must feel like. I had a couple of fuel cuts while I was setting up my Dawes Device and that was bad enough.
