hey guys i bought a vl the other day and i was having i few problems just wondering if anyone can help me out okay this is the deal when i drive all nice and slow like a granny its fine but when i flore it my car starts to miss and jugg so i replaced the afm with a good one and it ran finefor like a day or 2 Just now i took it for a spin and it wouldnt idle and it would jug and cut out any one no what could be the problem? and yes i have fuel cheers any help would be great really want to come on the cruize this weekend

hey man could be 1 of 2 things first ckeck the distributor is tight and in good working order and 2 could be crank angle sensor

Replace the dizzy with another one and see what happens. Had this happen to me before, dizzy was on it's way out, erratic spark

okay cheers guys ill try that any other ideas guys

First thing i would do is to activate the self diagnosis mode on the ECU and see what codes are displayed. Then erase them,go 4 a drive and see what code it displays then. It should point you in the right direction if its got something to do with the engine management.I'm assuming it has the standard computer. Doing this has saved me alot headaches b4,if you need info on how to do this let me know or it's covered in the gregorys workshop manual.

yer sounds like a plan now i just got to figure out how to do that and yer its got the standard ecu

Nath, last night when u were around i would have told u it was your CAS/dizzy, but cos you told me things were ok when you tried your bro's afm, i thought you'd be alright then!!

yer so did i but now its still playin up but worse i was thinking bout changing my CAS but i thought it was just the afm i think because the car hasnt been used in along time and hadnt had a service in three years me giving it a good run has brought out all the problems i deffintly think it has something to do with the CAS thou

mine did the same thing, replace your whole dizzy it will fix it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yer but isnt that a big job cause it stuff ya timing and **** up and u got to fiddle around alot i might just change my cas and see how i go

^^^^ that was me sighned in as my brother

oi asked corrie, he fixed a problem on my car......and changing the dizzy is easy...
