Went out into Wales for a blat a couple of weeks ago in my HPC. Coming round a bend at 60 odd MPH the car cut out completely and I coasted to a halt. The car started immediately on the turn of the key and performed faultlessly for the remainder of the journey although the rev counter was doing funny things, with the needle fluctuating ☹️
On subsequent trips a bit of a misfire developed and the car cut out several more times but always started fine afterwards I did a bit of research in the blatchat archives and people were indicating that he Vecta immobilisers were less than reliable... so last weekend I took it off the car.
Not a bad job; just disconnected all the wires and joined the ones where the immobiliser had been spliced into the loom. It took about half an hour in total. Decided that rather than fit another, I will rely on the removable steering wheel 😬
I don’t know if I am imagining this but the car now seems MUCH smoother and revs more freely *confused*Could a faulty immobiliser have affected the running of the car?
