Trigbush Posted July 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 Got the 6 back yay! Drove back from Maastricht 100km no problems, got in to Brussels and it was running lumpy, like a kangaroo. Fuel pump was hot and wining - I think it is a filter/membrane issue. It sat for 90 minutes whilst I went for lunch and was running just fine... Weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobinTR6 Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 May be cavitation if it was hot or low on fuel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Moltu Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 "the Crank is not driving the valve train" ???? That would result in pistons clouting valves - absolute mayhem. Its not that. Peter Nah - on a 6 the valves and pistons won't meet even if the timing is way out or even if there is no chain at all. Unlike many cars where timing chain/belt failure is catastrophic.
