re-set the ECU and pray,

might pay to pull out all the plugs and give them a good clean,
and the EGO sensor aswell.

whats the ego sensor mate and i take it i just disconnect the battary to re-set the ecu

put amsoil in it , then it won't sound like a diesel /pan

seriously though, put a gallon of normal 95ron fuel in then run it for a min or 2 then drain the tank again , this will have flushed the fuel rail and fuel return out, then fill with super as per usual , and then give it a good blast to clear it out of the exhaust etc. it may well smoke for a bit but that will clear

as psbarham said, and id change the fuel filter

How on earth did he get the petrol pump nozzle in the filler???
with skills, even i was thinking that, its a bugger to fill it with the petrol one lol

[Beastlee]

I noticed both the old and new VR4's have monster filler holes. I guess neither was properly converted for the SVA as the nozzle rattles around like something silly.

[stu1888]

well thats what i thought too,,,, then i took a look at the filler hole and seen its massive, cant have the same pumps as us in japan,,,,, bugger,,, tho its all running great now, took pump out and drained it and filled it again running sweet tho did smoke for 5 mines lol
