Car runs fine for about 20 - 25 minutes after cold start, then acts like it's running out of fuel at 2500 - 3000 rpm under wot and bogs. Runs fine at light throttle.
Thought it was a bad fuel / water in the fuel problem. Ran two tanks through the car with fuel injector cleaner - no help.
Changed the fuel filter. Ugh! You don't want to do this. Have to pull the belly pan, exhaust crossovers and then reach way up in there to get to the thing. After all of that, the fuel filter was fine, replaced it anyway but still no help - still have problem.
Checked the auxiliary fuel pumps. Tightened all connections. Used a meter to check that they were both receiving current. Both firing progressively - no help.
Belt is tight. Supercharger is still spinning.
I'll check fuel pressure / boost tomorrow but now suspect computer issue, perhaps with the Paxton supplied Timing controller.
Will call Paxton's tech support tomorrow.
Anyone else have this or anything like this happen yet?
