guys quick question, i get the code 13 coming up and code 44 both flashing at 2.5 per second i think. anyways my problem with my vn series 2 has been when driving it it stalls, it is a manual but i thought it was my dad stuffing around, so started it up in the drive and sure enough with no one in the drive it stalls again. so i service the old girl including brand new ngkr plugs and topgun leads, changed my pod as well as i bought a k&n to replace my old saas one and just never put it on. so my dad takes it for a spin for about an hour (i get my license back in 5 days so i gots to be the passenger atm) everything is fine. then my bro comes to melbourne and again im sitting beside him and it stalls about 2kms away from home... i go under the bonnet with the car started and push the throttle all the way open whilst running and it was sitting on maybe 2 or 300 revs, it was barely moving!!! im at my wits end with it cause i changed my fuel tank over from the 60 to a now 80litre tank and it was a bit of a headf**k changing sender units over cause one was leaking everywhere. the 80litre tank has brand new hoses new hose clamps im running 2 fuel filters both brand spanking, the external is a brand spanker but the internal fuel pump is a little older lucky to have 1,000 kms on it, got changed about 6 weeks prior to me losing my license, i changed the filter/strainer on the internal pump now too. wtf is going on? will changing the oxygen sensor fix my problem or would it likely to be something else as well?

Why two fuel filters? I read that if you use 2 regular canister style filters inline they can pose a pretty big restriction to flow, your factory pump may not be putting up with it very well

Could be entirely wrong as I never tried double filter setups.

behind the 1/4 panel at the wheel arch there was one connected to the filler neck of the fuel tank, so i replaced that one and then hooked it up as normal and there is the standard one for the 6 along the fuel line which i figured ah well 2 filters are better than one :)
i dunno, just seemed to sound logical... at the time anyway lol
