hey guys my xr6turbo is spluttering a a little bit it only just happened after we degreased and wash the engine bay i thought maybe spark plugs got wet it kinda got a little better after 30min drive any idea???

i doubt it be the plugs as they are under teh rocker cover due to coil on plug

u might have got water on some other sensor...

did u use a high pressure hose or tap pressure?

id be pulling the cover off the coil packs and pulling em out and giving em a blow with some compressed air,sounds like a wet coilpack to me,seen quite a few when i was working at ford

thanks heaps guys it happened to be just that a wet coil pack it dont sound so much like a wrx now cheers again for the help

hey guys the spluttering has got worse we took the plugs out and coil packs and have relised that 2 coil packs are cracked any 1 no how much these are rounghly to replace on a xr6 turbo

they not that expensive, i would be checking your plug gaps too and ford revised it aint the gap written on the tune up sheet under your bonnet. 1.1 is ringing a bell for some reason either thats what it should be or what it was cant quite remember, i remember changing millions of bloody spark plugs under warranty, the coils are cracking asking too much of the coil to ionise the gap in the plug, also if you have a tune good possibility that plug gap is too big.

Just wondering is yours manual or auto? just becoz I have had probs (detailed in "issues with starting ba" in this thread) but was told was only with manuals!

yeah mamajet it manul its all good pato 120 for the 2 coil packs now she is going like the clappers again

good to hear that alls well again
