Hi everyone,
Hoping to get some pointers and advice from you guys. I did search the forums first btw.
I’ll try to make this short but I want to give everyone the full picture.
The other week I was driving and noticed my car bogging under boost and idling rough. I figured it was maybe the plugs. No biggie. Went to the store bought some new plugs, gapped them and put them in.
Car runs way smoother now.
However, a few days ago after a single WOT pull my car was pulling a ton of timing. I was down a ton of power. More than normal. I noticed I had really high charge temps 180+. I got home and noticed there wasn’t any coolant in my intercooler reservoir.
At this point I’m wondering if the plugs went bad from the intercooler leaking into the manifold? I’m assuming that’s why the car was bogging down and idling rough? There’s definitely a leak because the reservoir is completely empty.
I will test the I/C pump tomorrow with the car off.
Anybody have an idea what the issue could be? I’m not an expert on cooling issues by any means.
Thanks for any input,
Mark
