Re: Misfire?

Hello everyone,

The day before yesterday I sent a message decribing a minor problem with a
decrease in power under harder accelleration.  I am now experiencing
additional problems.  So far, I have checked the intake air temperature
sensor, idle and full throttle switches and their connections, and they
seem to be fine.

On cold starts, the engine will stall if the accellerator is not held down
for at least 3-5 minutes.  The boost pressure guage now no longer reads
above 1.2 bar (it used to read up to 1.4 to 1.6.)  Under hard accelleration
there is a very noticable sound of rushing air under the hood (toward the
passenger side.)  At intersections the engine comes close to stalling, then
after a few moments the idle stabilizes to near normal but it is still
slightly rough.

Other than these problems, the engine runs as well as it ever has.  If
anyone has any suggestions or ideas, they would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
