i changed my plugs, colis, wires.....still rattling noise and sever loss of power at high RPM....thing is it doesnt happen all the time sometimes it is smooth as a kitten and sometimes it is like i wanna pull my head through my *** with frustration!!!!!COULD IT BE THE CAT????

 

have you checked the cat? My guess is that the SSV is sticking. Search for ssv ticking

 

If your near Kitchener/Waterloo area, bring it by my shop and I'll check it out for ya.

 

the cat makes sense...when it gets hotter the problem gets worse....ssv..not so sure about that but i will check it out...hey are you around on saturday>? whats the warranty on the cat in these things?

 

quite possibly the SSV.
Mine showed the same symptons when warm and the cat checked out fine (visual inspection of the cat when dropped).
Of course after the SSV valve was replaced the engine was soon diagnosed with no compression in the rear rotor and replaced under warranty.

 

Can you fix my car too?

 

Sell it and buy a 6 speed. It'll be fixed.

 

HA!!!! Nothing is wrong with my 8 thank you. I'm just asking for the future. Bet you my car out lives yours!!

 

oops, forgot to check back in this thread, I am around my shop all day Saturday if you would like me to take a quick look at it. I'll pm you my cell number in case you can make it.

I certainly can, be sure that I'm the first to know if you have any problems

 

Cool ok!! Hey can you show me how to deflood my car?? Just in case it happens to me again.

 

Sure can!

Depends how flooded it gets, it can be a fairly simple thing to do.

 

You're on! I drive it about 10k a year and there's only 50k on it.

 

Ok ... I will still kick your butt .

K RPM we'll make a date then. I'll let you know when I'm free.
