    Re: TM/TD Party! 5/23/09, So Cal, Electric Go Karts, BBQ, Beverages

    How funny, mine took a dump on the way to work about 2 months ago, at 74K? I was able to coast off the next off ramp, but it would hardly move after I had to come to a stop. Had it towed. The tps has been acting up lately, and causes a funky issue when coming to a stop, but no codes for that yet. When it's on a scanner it shows erratic throttle inputs when idle and no one is touching the gas.
    This time I was leaving my house very light throttle and it just felt like it stumbled shifting into 3rd...then it started to run very ruff, no power, and sounds like it is running on two-three cylinders. But it's a dog. If you rev much to try to get moving it vibrates very badly. Think it might be fuel pump/filter issue...the plugs and wires are all new....and there are no codes.

    is this a constant miss around 3rd gear or does it happen "now and again"?
    what's the O2 saying whilr you have the irratic throttle input?

    Note: hijack is for the bump. And as I write this edit, I relize I should have just pm'd you badgers dad....

    was accelerating lazyly it felt like a shift to third, then it started running rough. drove back to the house on what sounds like 2-3 cylinders. It's a constant thing, even in park or neutral. I haven't had a chance to get the scanner on it since this happened, waiting on my friend. No codes from using the ignition key.

    I never have a shifting issue, it's when I come back to a stop sometimes that the tps acts up. and the idle is jumpy and rough, then if you touch the gas slightly it drops down to normal and smooths out. This is the issue I was having before the current one.

    Computer is dropping #4 cylinder. Not sure why but the injector is being pulsed erratically like mad, but not when it should, computer is not setting any misfire codes. Going to try swapping the factory computer back in. I posted a thread on how to get chrsyler to warranty the stage one computer if thats the problem. I'm really pissed off right now. But looking forward to meeting everyone.

    Yes - go to the link for MB2raceways in the post above, register and put in the event code. Down load and print the maps too.

    Bring a side dish. If it needs refrigeration, then drop it at my house at 1:00before you go to the karts. My house is about a mile from the karts.

    Hey All,
    So should I just meet everybody at the Kart place, or at John's first? I wasn't sure what the exact plan is.
