is this the shitty wastegate on the K14 at fault?
#22
Lightbulb 
Ok, so this has been getting worse and today earlier on i went to pull out my carpark and she cut out half sticking onto the road . .Big Grin . . . . popped bonnet, pumped grenade and the little white doohicky on the side of the fuel filter housing pops right out! . .Doh

so whips housing off and fixed it back up again and she's good as ever . . . . .not really hesitating up top either, so as mentioned by someone else in this thread seems air is the problem as much as anything, these setups just seem 10x more likely to draw in air if you're running pure veg, i had lots of shit a year ago with it when i started running veg, fixed the housing up, then the pump started leaking so fixed that . . . .just gotta keep on top of it i guess . .

so to conclude: make sure everything is airtight as fcuk and renew any seals if need be . . Smile
