Digi 8V problems when cornering.

[SHimmer45]

Hi all.

having a bit of a problem with my Digi GTI.

when im going round right handers it seems to cough and judder as soon  striaghten up it sorts itself out and  carries on as normal
I have had the C02 etc set so it is running fine its just this one niggle.
i have checked the exhaust and sealed the 1 blow that was there and this hasnt made any difference.
the only thing i can think that might need changing is the HT leads and Distrubuter Cap.

Any help or ideas would be appriceated

thanks

yeh try that or check that your fuel pick up isnt getting blocked somehow

[SHimmer45]

ok it has had a new fuel filter fitted.
would checking that require taking the pipe of the fuel tank i assume?

There could be a load of poop in the tank... which is blocking up the intake when you're cornering, although I think there's probably a simpler explanation.

Bad or lose earth from the body to the engine, try connecting a seperate wire directly from the engine to the earth terminal on the battery, then give it a test drive...
Or a split in the induction pipes somewhere thats opening up, and sucks in air, as the engine moves while cornering, worth a look..

Wouldn't it do that if you revved the engine while the car was stationary if that was the case? Engine rocking etc...?

thanks for the tips people have a look at the weekend

A good check of all your wiring will proberly sort it, I had my valver tuned recently and on the way home just after I over took a motor bike hitting about 90 (on a private road) a great puff of brownish smoke came out and I lost all power. Had to pull over (with egg on face!!), anyway took it back and it turned out to be a wire on dizzy was disconnecting causing the rev limiter to come!!!

Give all your engine mounts a check also. 1 might have failed causing the engine to tilt or rock when going round the corner.
