Well this thread was short lived... Was driving along with a few friends one night few infront one behind me and they turned right and I checked cars ahead and saw one car far in the distance and could make my turn easy.. So I did and no sooner that I did... I got taken out. Turns out red p...

[/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG] also pulled into driveway tonight and steering got hard and keeps cracking type thing when i turn it.. it used to cracke when turning sometimes but now it...

Yeh mate fair call. When I have the time I'll take that carpet thing out and drill holes to put the cable through. Don't know if I'll have enough speaker cable now but because I cut it all to length. I'll see how I go :)

Thanks everyone :) yeh nice note to it! I have 100cell high flow cat and sport middle muffler and then hot dog rear. Nice sound little raspy but down low is mint. Also nice crackle and pop to it.. The stereo is awesome! Love it! Only thing is when I listen to radio before I go into work in the...

Yeh put it on Facebook.. Yeh very upsetting hopefully I can keep up to date I have the guy on Facebook now so if I want it back in a few years hopefully I could throw him a offer that he can't refuse.. I'll see I always wanted a black one so I might get another project black one :)

Hey guys.. sorry about the ford but i got told it was alright to post it here.. plus ford guys are ########s and just troll on their own forum…. anyways here is my XR coming from my VS ute it was a decent upgrade but i still love the VS… it had more character lol.. been cracking on with a lot of...

:'( thats sad! but good to keep it in the family i suppose :/

Is she painted :) ???

so the problem wasn't that simple… after spending way too much trying to fix it i gave up.. figured it was spark but just couldn't get it.. i put it up for 1K firm and got it.. got taken away today and hopefully i keep in contact with the new owner :( [/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG]

:hmmm: Okay.. So a few of you guys might know about the old problem with my ute were it sometimes starts and runs and sometimes doesn't or sometimes just splutters and coughs while driving.. Well still happening and I don't want to sell it like this :( So I took the tank out today and as I...

Pity it has come to this :( just looked over the whole thread... Car is all fixed .. As stupid as it was it was only a EFI relay :/ anyways.. No power steering and loud gearbox hoping to get about 4k if possible.. Otherwise she is good and I also have brand new water and power steering pump to...

****.. Might give it a miss.. I don't know :/

Hey guy's.. if you didn't see the problem post I think I have fixed it :) Also got my ss bar from paint today :) really happy with it especially for $40 :) Just need to source the bezels might chuck new tires on the rear ;) and off she goes! If anyone is interested let me know I might put it up...

Okay... So I think I have fixed it but it seems just too simple... Changed the EFI relay and the horn relay and around and drives fine now.... Horn didn't always work before so don't know if it's that or just a **** horn but it's not working as good as it used to.. Will update you guys but have...

Also.. If the car is getting way too much air but no fuel can that stuff the resistors in the MAF sensor or something? Was thinking with car off nut still going down the road it could have done something like that.. I have no clue! Started running better when I took the MAF sensor off blew it...

Hey guys, still haveing this problem... Took out the fuel filter and and reversed it into a bucket.. A bit of dirt and really really fine gold flakes are in the fuel.. Seems to drive fine for about 10 minutes which is better but still need to sort some things out.. Only problem is the budget :/...

nice idea! :)

sl would be good and ssl on rear.. still practical unless you really kart around really heavy stuff in the tray.. Looks a lot better with tub liner :) and about the suspension if your poor just put something in the back till you can get new springs or just get new springs asap lol.. looks weird...

yeh lol. passed a cop and wanted to be quiet which was stupid.. anyways.. k&N filter has not been cleaned since purchased and also they have proven the oil does not do anything to the MAF sensor i checked :) yeh did try codes with a computer scanner tool and nothing came up at all.. just engine...

No problem mate! steal away :) I stole it from someone but gave his thread a shout out so yeh hope he's not too mad lol :) And yeh read my mind! Hook's will be going too soon junior.. Soft cover is already off.. just look's too "mature and practical" for me but this is all in due time.. anyways...

I don't think its that.. Maybe it is and CAS is just ####ed.. because on the coldest mornings I try start it and it might start and stall or not even start.. I don't think it's that.. I think it is something to do with spark might change spark plug's or even just have a look at them

Yep posted on the vr vs Facebook page, I have a help thread on here but just to give quick explanation.. Stall's sometimes doesn't start and plutters and backfires while driving.. etc And yeh I'm keeping it sort of stock.. stereo,louder exhaust,leather and XR8 bonnet and maybe hard cover with...

Look's soo good on the dirt at the job site :'( :cry:

this is it mate :) will post more on this thread once i wash it.. [/URL][/IMG] And the day that i made my "want to keep my ute" decision and then the very next day it broke down and didn't run right since... [/URL][/IMG]

IM SORRY!...... As a few of you might know,I have had a pretty big problem with the ute.. this is just getting old! I thought I would have the patience and budget to sort this out..But none of my plan's will get done if I keep having to fix these problem's.. so..I have gone to the dark side...

Well I have replaced the DFI module and coil pack's and still nothing.. and to the not enough thread thing. you know how you have 2 screws for the coil on screw into the bottom plate thing yeh? Well one of the threads on one of them was worn.. should not have cause it but IDK.. it has reasonably...

it's the fuel pump but that is the phone siting right on the tank so that's why it's so loud... i am thinking its the DFI module or CAS either way it's pretty cheap so ill be trying DFI module first and than followed by the CAS.. it must be getting fuel if it's backfiring so that tells me it's...

Sorry to bring bad new's but it's happened again... So it's not fixed... After banging the coil's and blowing the MAF it ran good for about 20 kilometer's and then didn't start right and then spluttered stalled.. so changed the coil's for second hand good one's and they didn't help so what is...

they are installed correctly and the screw is in.. it's just not holding much pressure.. It doesn't have enough thread to bite on.

yes definitely! What I learned is that everything should be carborated (not that i spelt that right) lol.. Nah fuel injection is good i suppose.. Just thanking god it was that simple.. Drove it a while and started it a few times.. seemed back to normal :) back to it! Need to get it right :)

OK! Really hope I don't gync it but... I think I have solved it.. but to me.. it sounds way too simple to be fixed but anyways just will see what you guys think... after doing that.. I went back and hit the plugs again..and remembered that one of my coil packs is not screwed in it is just...

ok something weird just happened... So went to go have a look at the maf.. and did.. took the hose off at either end and looked..seemed clean to me so I gave it a blow and put it back..while i was there i cleaner out my air intake panel and put that back together...and just even though the leads...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWWhec4skAw Here is a video of my phone on the fuel tank if it helps.. after hearing it fluctuate I'm thinking it is the fuel pump but then again idk so I'm also thinking maybe something is blocking the line causing it to make different noises idk.. cheer's again

Ok.. so although I love people giving me ideas.. I hate it too because it sounds like a lot of things it could be :( I have a mechanic mate and hopefully he will do a few check's before i spend money.. To answer some more questions.. Can I hear pump priming:yes can I hear pump while running:yes...

that sounds scary! And another thing that sounds scary is that the fuel pump primes the car let's it start and still i can hear it for a few seconds once the car stall's... although yesterday i did hear it fluctuating a little... I really hope this isn't a huge problem :(

thanks again for your help.. usually I ask about simple stuff but this is really important to me because i need my car for work :'( So i really appreciate it both of you and everyone else that comment's :)

Ok cool thank you :) I still have the old pump that e replaced when trying to fix another problem.. turns out the pump we replaced was still fine and that's what we thought because that pump is less than 1 year old too.. So just quickly.. can I use that? from what you guys are saying.. Im...

so.. bottle of injector cleaner..followed by a new pump and filter? should that do the trick with any luck?
