Superchip probs

Postby DeanoW on Tue Jun 03, 2003 11:12 pm

just fitted a superchip in my 2i 16v and all was well until arriving at a junction in 2nd, see it is clear, put the accelerator down and....nothing, everything stops and after a second or so it jumps and all's well again.
Any ideas guys?

Could be a conincidence and u just need new ignition leads (Magnecor) or a new rotary arm and dissy cap. Could also be plugs? Hope this helps.
Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop to look around once in a while, you could miss it.

when I got mine fitted (on a FRST) they never cleaned the terminals properly - so intermittantly it would cut out!
