Th If you have any idea what my problem is please call me and help me. 570-825-4655. I have a 95 RS with a fully built motor and a turbo kit. #30 injectors, 255 pump, vortech sfmu, missing link and all teh supporting mods. I have been having this problem for about 4 months and I cant figure it out. If you know your 420a's please help, if your not sure then please dont post. Heres the problem. The car will start "sometimes" and will run alright. I can sometimes drive the car for about 10 miles it will range from 1- 10 or so miles until teh car acts up and makes me just want to smash into a wal because I cant figure it out!! When the car acts up it will stutter and miss real bad and at times when im driving along and the car is missing it will clear up and snap my neck from the power. Once I shut the car off and try to start it again it will putt and try to start and eventually it will just keep cranking and not start. Now if I go out the next day and start it it will sputter at 1st but if I give it a little gas it will smooth out and run fine for a while and it will repeat teh same thing. I have tried all the commong things and nothgin has worked. I have done just about everything I can imagine. 2day it was running alright for about 20 minutes and when I was comign back into the garage it was steaming like crazy from some coolant. but that is besides the point or is it? I really am sick of this car and can care less if I accidently hit a guard rail!! Just Kidding :cry:
 
This is a DSM site right?? I know not that many people know the 420a but I at least thought there would be a few! Ahh I hate my car!! :mad:
 
sounds like you are flooding it out. i had the same problem, when it has to much gas its sputters from flooding but when you back off the throttle a little it takes you for a jump.
 
I tried posting in the NT section but no luck. What would cause my car to be flooding out?
 
i have the exact same problem with my turbo 46G3. except i have no mods at all. i try adjusting the idle screw.. that only affect it about 1oo rpm's, and i adjusted the cam sensor, does very little. i cant figure it out
