flat spot when i hit 110

Postby Low And Wide » Fri Nov 06, 2009 12:13 am

basically i was going up chichelly hill cos ive never pushed my car to its limits since i got it and i hit about the 110 mark and the car let off havent really got any clue why it just hit like a flat spot but once i took my foot off the accelerator and put it back on it was fine,

the engine is still using the factory induction as this month i decided to by a snowboard instead of my bmc kit lol could iit be because the air being sucked in to the engine was to hot or just tht the car doesnt like going tht fast up hills lol

any advice tips would be great i did get a little worried.

When I got the legal speed of 60 ;) roughly what you was doing up same hill, my car just flats out too. Probably due to speed up a steepish hill.

lol its only a 16v polo, you'd dont well to get that uphill tbh, you might have hit the rev limiter in 5th.
