Odd misfiring problem Wed, 03 March 2004 02:13 Go to previous message
Car in question is an australian delivered sprinter which has had the jap spec RWD TVIS 86kw 4AGE dropped in. Otherwise basically standard. Recently out of the blue it has started acting very strangely. It is a little hesitant to start but once it has it idles perfectly and up to about 10% of throttle travel it is perfectly fine and dandy. Beyond 10% throttle it dies and misfires/backfires/stutters/coughs like nobodies business... drop back down to very little throttle and its fine.

Beyond about 6000rpm it runs fine at all throttle positions, my thought is the idle switch component of the TPS is rooted and is permanently showing that it is at idle.

I removed the TPS and cleaned it as best as possible with contact cleaner but it made no difference. I have the instructions on how to backtest the TPS and will be doing it shortly and will report back.

Has anyone had any similar problems and found a solution?
