Acceleration Faltering, Details 2nd page Options

lets cut to the chase.

-car ran fine after cam install

-small valve tap

-after 2 weeks small knocking noise that seems to be coming from below the cam gear and only sounds when its around 1000rpm

-had an exhaust problem - detached the midpipe to run open downpipe until i got it fixed

-car ran super lean at low rpms under a fair load and sputtered as if its grasping to find power. sputters from stop to go at low rpms and drops super lean

-new mid pipe welded on

-car still sputters from stop to go at low rpms but now it gets a bit rich or just sputters with an even 14.X A/F r

- AND at 4900rpm under 100% throttle the car falls on its face and looses power. if anything under 100% throttle there is no problem.



i have a race this sat. and sun. i really need to figure out if this is a tune problem or an internal problem.
any insight at all will be helpful! thanks!

to add to the previous post.
the car is timed right and is running fine at idle (with -17% correction on the SAFC)

the original problem is still occurring
at about 45 percent throttle at any RPM in 2nd gear to 5th
engine stutters, as if its not getting spark or enough fuel, i dont know.


cant really fix anything right now since i brought the car to school and it is under a foot of snow lol
