is this the shitty wastegate on the K14 at fault?
#20
People have tried numerous times to fix this, it happens on diesel too if you're running enough fuel... Normally people have tried lift pumps, big fuel lines, different filters... Usually to no avail...

It's just the fact the pump cannot pull the fuel out the tank, through the filter etc quick enough... Ve pumps on Cummins etc are working in their perfect range of around 2750rpm, not 4500+...

As said as the fuel starves, the pump pressure falls off, it pulls off the dynamic timing, coals like f*ck due to the retarded timing, you'd think it's got all the fuel it needs due to the coal, but it's just the timing causing it...
