Loseing my shit over here...
New intank pump and tank. Thought i had the issue beat this time. After about 15 miles right back to the same shit. Motor changes tune, loses power, pops when you let off the throttle...
Overall it runs great untill it takes to these fits. 60-65mph all day and power for days off the line.
I shut it off for 10 minutes, fire it up, itll run good for another 5 or 10 miles.
It acts like its running out of fuel. Has no power, motor kinda "hums" and it breaks up at higher RPMs.
Im getting a code 41, lean O2. Which i was NOT getting with the old O2, but i changed it trying to cure this issue. I unplugged the O2, (which i tried before to no avail, but now that the rear pump is working...) but this time it seemed to help.
I could hear the motor still doing the same thing, but to a lesser extent and only at higher RPMs....It also seemed to idle better for some friggin reason...
Any ideas???
Could it be a damn ignition issue?? Its seeming more and more that way. But i dont know anymore.
Can an FPR fail lean?
