Car Stuttering

Hi all :) First post :O

 

Right basically , Im having a probs with ma motor where it keeps like judering now n then. i.e if im driving down the road just like cruising, ill get an almighty juder as if no fuel has been supplied to the engine But then all is fine.

 

Ive replaced the fuel filter ( every 6 months ) cleaned out the fuel pump filter, Even blown down the fuel line with a bit of old tyre valve hose on the other end and collected what junk came out :-| piles of it. Ive even cleaned out the fuel tank.

 

but im still getting this juder. Ive used redX, Hotshot, Stp, Forte, everything, but nothing has shifted this judder. :vangry: Oh and ever since owning my motor almost 4 years now, ive always used shell optimax.

 

My feelings are telling me to get the injectors cleaned as they maybe junk sitting there. Or even uprated injectors :D

 

Any ideas peeps??

could be numerous things m8. seems a few of us have or had this problem somewhere down the lines. Plugs,ht leads,coilpack, injectors ,crankcase breather pipe the list goes on it can be any1 of them . After i had gone through my list i even considered a new head lol. Seems mine was a couple of things, 1 plug was slightly off the gap was too small also the crankcase breather pipe was knackered so it was sucking in air and collapsing. also i have a leaking icv. Im waiting for my new icv in a few days. After that its a long run down the motorway and see if its gone =]

 

gl in your journey i hope you enjoy it cause i certaintly did not ! :P

well its been happening for about 2 months now and its driving me nuts. Doesnt happen when im booting it down the motorway or, driving at high ish speeds, only when im poodling about sometimes when pulling off also ??

 

Ive reset ecu incase of error codes, hooked on with a snap on, Diagnosis, + ford ecu reading hardware, No error codes, All pipes seem ok , i change all my engine bay pipes once a year.

 

my only conclusion is the injectors :(

i had this problem on the girlfriends car all last week.tried the usual redex (i thought it was fuel related) but no joy.i took the car to a guy and he sprayed carb cleaner at the butterfly (air inlet duct).and used a cloth to get the residue that builds up over time.and get a friend to rev the car while spraying down the duct to circulate the spray.the best £2.50 i have ever spent,the car revs right through clean as a whistle.worth a try. :thumb:
