  • Just Bought A Festiva!!!

    So I just bought A Festiva after not having one for about 5 years and found out the Festiva Motorsports is gone :-( ...

    My old Festiva was stock with plans but I was young and broke. The Festiva's plans for now are to either add NO2 to the stock B3 until it blows up and then do a swap or I might Turbo the stock B3 if I decide to drive it more often.

    Anyway I will be looking forward to talking with you guys.

    Good to have you back!
    Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

      B3. Rear turbo. Hilarious, and you keep your gas mileage (when off boost). Talk to Greg/eurotiva.

        I'm doing a little bit of work on the engine right now. Im having a problem with when i give it gas it almost shuts off for a second and seems like it struggles a little to rev up almost like it is missing on 1 cylinder but only when i give it a food bit of gas. Maybe a valve or maybe an injector is what I'm thinking.

          Do not put food bits in your gas. They will clog up the fuel filter much more quickly.

          Maybe an injector; I doubt a valve would be the issue, as it's purely mechanical. Also perhaps a bad plug or plug wire is causing the missing.

            This is a good excuse to do an engine swap.

                I raised my idle... Some say that its your idle air control valve. I havent replaced mine yet to see if thats it.
