rs turbo cutting out
rs turbo cutting out
hi , wonder if any one can help, my 94 rs turbo engine in my l series has just developed a fault. it randomly cuts out, no warning , no engine check light. it generally stays off for between 2 to 30 seconds and starts again and all is fine, was doing it every 100 ks or so but that is now down to about 10 ks , please any ideas, don't really know where to start , thinking maybe fuel pump but really not sure , cheers for any help

Coil packs?
The OMEs are notorious for presenting all sorts of bugs. The Bosch upgrade is a tried and tested fix.
Mine used cut at random only above 80kph, and only in the summer. New coil packs fixed it.
Jump on rslc for finer the details - is a DIY

Check for any loose connections in the engine bay or under the dash.
Has anything been done recently to the car and possibly disturbed something?

Start the car and let it idle while you wriggle every plug and connector you can find under the bonnet and dash, if it cut's you've found the culprit.
Also check the fuel pump connections.

You could have loosened an earth point somewhere.. very hard to know how the conversion was done??
