GLT power drop 4.5 - 5k

Post by **deleted** » 21 Aug 2005 05:00 am

My new 360 runs pretty nice, we ran a compression test on the cylinders and all came up at 162PSI. It doesnt seem to have as much power as my other 360 though.

When revving it out, the power drops at 4.5k, you can just feel it lose power as if the fuel line was blocking, it then clears up but at about 5k it drops again even bigger.

Any ideas what it could be ? a hose missing??

The appears to be more noise coming from the engine bay under accelartion on this one ( i keep thinking that intake to engine pipe thing has slipped off, but it hasnt), perhaps this barbleyer noise could be somthing to do with the power drop??

I have discovered that one at least of my injector seals is leaking, i can hear a pshhhhhhhhhhh noise, and if i place my fingers over the injector it goes away. Could this cause this sort of problem??

Is it likiely that leaking injector seal would really make much difference on performance at all

Its a very common problem. You will need to replace all the injector seals and it would be best to replace the plastic retainers at the same time.
