    Eek strange one

    had a problem today, car seemed very sluggish from a standing start well below 1000 revs, then i lost throttle control all together for about a min then came back fine, then later car stalled while at a standstill, sounded rough as hell when restarted but now running fine..

    is it a 150?

    If it is Iwould say 3rd injector wiring.

    What colour are you plugs on the injectors, blue or yellow?

    if they are yellow at the very least the 3rd injector plug and wiring needs to be updated to the blue version
