87 GN with 60K miles, motor has 6 K on it, Comp Cam 218/218, 70MM throttle body and turbo, front mount intercooler, Terry Houston down pipe. Car had high boost/rpm iginition issues last week, sputtering/popping at boost of 13-15 psi, swapped coil packs did not help.
Below WOT all ok, seemingly.
yesterday started it up to move it in driveway, backfired once, then started and ran fine, moved it 30 feet, shut it down.
Wetn to move it back later, and after starting it, had loud, tapping or ticking sound coming from engine, 19 degrees of retard on scan master, at idle!
Where do I start looking???
When I was trying to solve the high rpm boost ignitionissues, I unplugged the Cam sensor and all was fine, so could this be a cam sensor issue??? I hope...
This is a daily driver, so it has to run Tuesday.
