Half way through the 2nd day of this last race my engine started to sputter in the high RPM ranges. 5k+ After service and the engine cooled down it came back to life. About 6 miles into a 10 mile stage the high RPMs started sputtering again.
Then it kept getting worse because I had two 12 miles stages right after that. As of right now, the car will not idle, if I give it gas the car runs fine even into the higher RPMs until it heats up. I thought it might be spark, but i'm getting spark at least just checking it in my garage. I also did a compression test and the numbers are good 190/180/180/180 The engine is a 3sge.

Shouldn't be VVT in a 3rd gen 3SGE; just ACIS.
Beams has the VVT - no? I'm out of er right now too. -------------------- |
