#1: Car splutters when revving really annoying Author: nemesislee, Location: stokePosted: Sun Jul 08, 2012 8:58 am ---- I have a issue not calling it a problem yet as the car runs kinda ok. When I put my foot down on the accelerator quickly and let go the car almost stalls, the exhaust make a sound like spluttering. I'm also loosing some power when the car warms up too. Any ideas?
Another problem/annoyance is that my car makes a weird squeaking noise but it's on the passenger side, so it's not the cam belt etc.
Thanks in advance

Thanks

#7: Re: Car splutters when revving really annoying Author: nemesislee, Location: stokePosted: Wed Jul 25, 2012 2:18 am ---- am i correct in thinking that i need a 16mm spark plug socket? ordered new plugs and have a tool but need the correct socket size
#8: Re: Car splutters when revving really annoying Author: martinius88, Location: Rushden, NorthantsPosted: Wed Jul 25, 2012 2:44 am ---- I think its 16mm or 17mm cant remember off the top of my head I'm afraid.
#9: Re: Car splutters when revving really annoying Author: nemesislee, Location: stokePosted: Wed Jul 25, 2012 3:46 am ---- thats cool thanks just ordered a set from ebay means ive got another wrench but it comes with a 16mm and 21mm socket just hoping this sorts the problem out, if not il be looking at another coil pack.

#12: Re: Car splutters when revving really annoying Author: nemesislee, Location: stokePosted: Fri Sep 07, 2012 3:26 am ---- how do i go about checking that?
#13: Re: Car splutters when revving really annoying Author: Steve180, Location: CoventryPosted: Fri Sep 07, 2012 5:54 am ---- If it's the sensor I think Gavin is talking about, it will be located in the outlet tank on the side of the block (thermostat housing its called if you don't work for Peugeot). It's unlikely to be that tbh but it's worth a check, a dodgy sensor is a dodgy sensor, cleaning it/ replacing it may help in other areas.
So you've changed the pack and plugs and still have a 'mis-fire/ revving problem'..... hmmmmmm, is it the TU3JP engine? (1.4 petrol?) If it is, have you checked the injectors? I did one a few days back, similar probs as you, tried new plugs and pack, didn't fix it, in the end it was the injector.
