Hi

My son has just got a zx 14i and he keeps having a problem with the engine cutting out this is a intermittent fault.

If you rev the engine to about 6000 revs the engine starts to pop and the revs start to drop and if when driving the revs will drop right down to nothing and cut the engine.

The car starts first time everytime and can be driven for a day without any problems then you go out a hour later and it starts playing up again.

It seems like a fuel problem but we have changed the fuel filter and used redex injector cleaner.

Has anyone had a simlar problem or got any ideas how to fix it.

The car had been sat for 5 months with no use and also needed a new clutch which has been done.

Many Thanks

Sounds like electrical problem rather than fuel.

 

1st - why would you run the engine to 6K revs. ? It's not a ZX dakar, or similar, you know :(

 

When were the spark plugs changed? is it a monopoint injection (looks like a carb.) or multipoint (you can see injector per each cylinder)?
