hi all, ive had my jdm st205 for 3 years and I love her but shes breaking my heart. shes stalling for no reason. its been 4 months of diy research and replacing things.
anyone got any ideas cos im just about to give up. ill run through the best I can whats going on. the car will run great for around half an hour then a slight hesitation on throttle then 10 seconds later the engine light comes on,the revs drop to idle (900) and stays there , if I try to accelerate it will stall. it will start again but with difficulty, but still no acceleration, so have to turn it off and walk home swearing ![]() reconditioned the wta pump, checked relay, fine water level fully topped up and sensor ok replaced every water hose and vacuum hose with silicon.(pig of a job) replaced water temp oil temp radiator temp sensors. new rocker cover gaskets, fuel filter, air pod filter, dizzy, changed fuel pump, changed fuel in tank, knock sensor done a year ago, disassembled throttle body and cleaned aic and visually checked tps, new oil and filter and fluids, all I can think of now is a busted ecu because limp mode is supposed to get me home with half power but I can only idle. and heres the kicker, next morning it starts up like theres nothing wrong!! its driving me insane. and wanted to know if any one got any ideas. I want my car back!! please can anyone help |

Code 54 does cause the enginee to go I to limp mode. But it's nothing as severe as what the OP is describing. In my case boost would drop to 7 psi max in limp mode. This really sounds like a tps issue to me. So I agree with bsamps, bust out a meter and check the tps for proper resistances
