Posting this in electrical as not sure if it’s something to do with the ignition or not.
Swapped the inlet manifold gasket recently as was having issues with lack of power and took it for a test drive the other day and it worked perfectly. Have tried to drive it this weekend and every time it falters when it’s in gear and i put my foot down, which it wasn’t doing last week.
It has fuel, the fuel pressure is fine and it doesn’t do it when it’s not in gear. It was having a similar issue previously when the voltage regulator had been overcharging the battery and the battery couldn’t hold the charge and the volts were dropping when i was going.
Yesterday i noticed the volts were on 8 so i charged the battery overnight and thought maybe that’s why it was having problems. today it’s on 12v and i’ve taken it down the road and every time i put my foot down a bit it falters and almost cuts out but the bolts were staying at 12. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be the problem? Have barely driven it since october as been having issue after issue and i’m really missing driving it but feel a bit in over my head with what i need to do to get it going or how to fault find it
