I'm having a few boosting issues. Sometimes the car will pull well but sometimes it pulls for a bit then looses power and makes a fatty glittery type noise:D
I had a look at the plugs and the outer 2 are ok but the inner two have a bit of carbon build up on them:scratch:
I made a tdc wire using screened cable but I have tied it in with the rest of the loom so with the injector, coil, relay everything wiring, could this cause a problem?
What are the best plugs for this engine I have used the Bosch super4's but want to try a normal type of plug and these have been in for nearly 3 years now so could do with a change anyway.

glittery like a ball rattling in a can? sounds like pinking? perhaps you have some fueling/aei pipe issues/overboosting issues

If anyone from the Surrey meet can explain the noise from the outside or even has an idea as to what it might be that would be great. Was pulling ok a few times on the way there but leaving it didn't want to know:sad2:
