Limp Mode 3 times!

AndreM818 · 07-23-2010, 03:04 AM

Ok, so I was doing some freeway runs, and my car would get the half engine light on. Would pull over, turn off my car and wait a couple minuets. Start it and everythings fine. But then when I started to gas it alot, it would go into limpo mode again. I drove home regularly, normal gas, and it didnt come up.

Does anyone know whats happening? HPFP? I have muffler delete if that helps.

maybe vanos usually only happens when u get on it, slightly after you let off the gas usually
