Car does not always have full power (acceleration)SsHaDyGt 05-22-2009, 12:09 AM Hi Guys, I recently picked up another GTP that was already modded. 98 White GTP, 1.9 Ratio Roller Rockers 105# Springs Ported Supercharger SLP Headers Flowmaster Mufflers U bend delete No resonator Cat (unsure what kind) 02 sim MSD Plug Wires Fuel Pump Hotwire Kit DHP Performance Programmed PCM 3.4” pulley: Autolite 104s @ .052-.054” gap (Just changed) K&N filter attached to stock intake tubing (came like that) When I really get on it, sometimes it feels like it has full power and other times it feels as if the supercharger belt was off. I replaced the belt with a new 060 gatorback belt. I don't believe that the belt is slipping since the boost gauge reads 8 PSI regardless if I feel the power loss or not. Where should I begin to look to start troubleshooting? Thanks Andy tblake 05-22-2009, 11:01 AM I wonder if your experiencing knock Retard the times when you have loss of accelleration. Do you have any way to get it scanned to watch you KR values? SsHaDyGt 05-22-2009, 11:35 AM Yeah, I posted on a local forum and that's what people think. A local guy has a scanner so I think we're gonna give that a try. tblake 05-22-2009, 02:37 PM I had what you describe also only not very noticable. Mine had a sticky injector that made the car run and idle good, but over fueled one cylinder. I'm thinking the PCM got a rich signal from the O2 sensor and leaned back all cylinders causeing KR. I pulled my plugs and found one with a thick coating of carbon that smelled like gas. I replaced the corrosponding fuel injector and all has been good since. Maybe pull your plugs and have a look. You could even ohm check your injectors. If you come to find out one of your injectors is bad, send me a PM, I have a bunch of used ones I have aquired I could sell you one for cheap.
