Hello! I have been reading various similar threads and trying various things to help with the issue, but so far my searches and reading have not led to an answer for my issue.
Recently got my Talon going last year and everything was great until recently. I was running some errands and stopped off at a store. When I started the car, it seemed like it was running on 3 cylinders. AFR was around 18+ and had almost no power at all. Limped it home. Since then it seems the problem is random. I had everything going good for about a day and then it came right back. It feels like a limp mode has been activated somehow and I cannot figure out from what. Injectors are new (after the issue) plug wires are also new with new plugs, gapped correctly at .028. Doesnt seem to be caused by heat as it will do it upon startup after being parked for a week or 2. I have not done a boost leak test recently, but compression is good as well as leak down test is good. I really feel it is electrical, and I am not very good with electrical issues.
I realize my description probably sucks, so any questions that will help me diagnose this would be most welcome. Profile is accurate but might not be fully comprehensive. Im sure ive left things out. I can also post a log if it will help.
Thank you in advance
