So I have a 1.8 with L jet. I have miss that is complete loss of power. Tach does not bounce so not likely ignition related.

I replaced dual relay and keep looking for bad grounds.

Happens at any speed, any rpm, during accel or decel or when just crusing at any speed. not at idle.

Some days not there at all, other days only after several hours, other days, right from start. Hot cold raining dry may be there or not.

Any ideas? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

Something very similar was happening to my 1.8. It was almost like it was starving for gas an no power..intermittently. Turns out I had loose connectors (actually the wires going into the connectors) on my fuel injectors. It was totally intermittent. When it was running poorly i did the "pull off" the spark plug wire to find out which cylinder wasn't firing. Then I siimply wiggled the injector connectors and found the bad ones. This had many stumped and it was a simple old wiring issue....it's worth a check on yours...but do it when it's acting up.
