I have a hassle with my VP HSV enhanced SS which is sending me round the twist
The problem is intermittent which adds to the frustration.
Seems that the car is dying when at constant revs on freeway as if it is starving for fuel,but when it starts to do this if I accererate it will clear and run clean and properly again. Engine doesn't missfire at all although it sometimes backfires when the revs drop too much
Other symptoms are the engine management light flickers all the time with the engine running and also when the ignition is switched on and engine not running.Although it sometimes goes out for days only to reappear again
It happens whether a full load of fuel nearly empty or any where in between.
Yesterday went for drive and it did it on way to city on freeway but not on the way home.
So far I have replaced Fuel Pump,Fuel Filter, Ignition module and Oygen sensor. Checked fuel line for blockage and also return line, all clear
Next item to try would seem to be fuel pressure regulator on the fuel rail.
Have had the car to dealer and put on diagnostic,no codes came up
HELP!!!! where to next
cheers
