Are you getting a strong signal to the ecu.Is it reading rpm ok.

hi, i`m using some mercedes injectors, not sure what they flow.......am running boost retard canister.i have fitted a malpassi reg, and it still ran the same, i then  closed plug gap up it was 98 percent better.i hit boost about 5 times. no worries...      THEN   it was idiling funny,put my foot on the pedal, and it dies down,    cant get no revs, i pulled the vac line going to the  digi one, then after a quick stabon the pedal, i could get it to rev pretty well, and actually drive it, maybe the  reg settled down , and needs the fuel pressure  reseset?, i`m getting a pressure gauge tomorrow, and check it out then.

 Mark,
Are you still using the factory injectors???? I remember u asking about injectors.... If so id say that is your problem. My injectors wouldnt flow much more than that. With the malpassi reg, ca18 inject, and good fuel pumps i was able to run 22psi+ easy. As for the ignition i  ran a S2 dizzy - which i think your running??? Have you fitted a boost retard unit and sorted it all in that regard?? If so then run some BPR7ES plugs (or 6ES's) gap them down to around 0.6mm and youll be right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then boost up 10psi is ordinary you want to at least double that....

I would be checking the fuel pressure while this is happening.  If your regulator is not responding to the boost quickly enough then it could be lean.  But that would be after I checked the plug gaps.

    Sounds like it's running out of something - if it feels like fuel then it's
    probably spark

    hi,   as it approaches max boost (10 psi max) ,  you will be accelerating,
    then it would  cut out  for a tick, then accelerate again, then it would ,
    maybe  sorta run a LITTLE  funny for a bit , then accelerate again, .
    most of the time this happens in the period of about 2-3 seconds, then some
    times  it might happen fractionally.,  then once in a while it will be okay.
    i will check into those plugs.
