Hi yes it has a flash lube system on it it has about 91,000 on the clock it was converted a couple of years ago so not to many miles on gas I would think the miss seems to be a bit worse when cold but sometimes I can't feel it either Thumbs Up

Does the flash lube feed each cylinder ?
The petrol injectors are a problem with the supercharged, but only when cold , goes away when warm.
Are you getting any fault codes ? 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST

Yeah lean code does show up , but check you have a feed on the flash lube to each cylinder and not one to the intake . That's first job , then we can go from there Mr. Green 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST

Hi just had a quick look without taking anything off apart from the engine cover I only see 1 pipe from flash line bottle and it looks like it goes in to manifold by the rear of the air intake by the throttle body Thumbs Up

Ok I'm afraid that's good enough for the engine .I don't know why installer's don't fit them to each cylinder Big Cry it needs a feed to each cylinder to make sure your valves don't get worn . Next step I would do is to check the valve clearances ! 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST

Thinking about it the misfire that shows is inconsistent so I would have thought that to be valves it would be the same all the time but on the diagnostic it's not it's more like electrical Question

OK but you will have to strip out the hole intake and fuel injectors to fit the correct delivery system for your flash lube ,so each cylinder is fed , This has to be done ! or you will defo get valve problems . when doing that I would advise you getting the petrol injector's tested and check the valve clearances . 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST

Take it to a good log place one that does the surperchaged engines , but to fit the flash lube kit to the engine will not be cheap . Does it misfire on gas and petrol ? 2007 SUPERCHARGED HST
