hi people im a bit of a newbie so i need allthe help i can get.i made the jump from 1.8vectra to a w,reg impezza turbo,and its fukin unbalieveble.ive only had it for 2 days and im starting to panic a bit it feels like its juddering/spluttering a little on the build up before boost comes in any help much apprieciated.cheers folks

 

are you using the right fuel?

 

hi i also just got my first scooby been running on normal unleaded had same problem do you have to use the super unleaded

 

orite fellas ive just been using unleaded shud i not be.

 

lol another 1 worried

 

Try using 99 ron fuel either tesco 99 or shell V power (yes i know there both expensive) Give it some time for the ecu to register the higher ron fuel as it wont just sort itself out straight away.
The other thing is what apark plugs are you all using

 

Or the boost solonoid mite need a clean

 

cheers mate not sure what spark plugs mate but as i only just got car was gonna change them anyway so whats the best to use, does it perform better on that fuel then

 

how do you clean it and where abouts will i find it on car soz new to these cars

 

Don't know about classics, but I drive a bugeye and it says to ONLY run it on super. Tesco 99 is far cheaper than V-Power and I haven't had many problems with it - Sainsburys super tends to make the car stutter a bit when it's cold.

 

stick to v-power should notice the difference Jim.

 

Replace your MAF.

 

how hard is it to clean the boost solenoid wud it b better taking it to a garage

 

does the maf cost much2 replace cheers

 

for a Uk 99\00 Impreza you're talking about £80. Don't let them try sell you the whole housing.

part no

change using a torx. the standard housing has security torx bolts so just snap the pins off with a screwdriver if needed.

Although if, for some reason you want to hold on to the bolts, Halfords sell specific screwdrivers to fit most of these as I found on when changing some bits on my old Celica...
