Hi, I have changed my alternator belt on my s14a and I now have running issues. The car idles ok, but when you increase the revs the engine seems to misfire. I have tried to drive it and very low on power, pops and bangs from exhaust and slightly egg smell. As it stands the car is undrivable and I removed the following while changing belt (all items are oem) -
Battery
Dump valve
Air filter
Hard pipe from intercooler to intake plenum.
Fan cowel
Viscous fan
Everything is back in its rightful place and before this I had no running issues at all.
Any ideas? As I now do not have a car for work! =)
Could a boost leak cause this? I guess me taking off hard pipe that runs across top of cowling could have caused issues with the wing mount?
Car is on 117k with original wing mount.
If it is the wing mount what is the best thing to replace with without breaking the bank?
Thanks in advance guys! I used the search but nothing specific to my problem came up!
