Gentlemen,

I've inherited a Proton Wira VR4 from my brother and the engine condition is kind a working okay. But there are several problems occurs recently in the system (I think so) and I don't know what is it.

When I'm on accelerate and hit the clutch instantly (i.e change gear or slowing down), the engine will shut off. It happens often. Does it have to do anything with its throttle body?

Then the engine jerking when it hit >5500 rpm (boost @ 0.6) and now it happen @ >3500rpm(approx). Does it has anything to do with the turbo or fuel pump? Or anything else?

FYI, there's some leakage around the manifold area (white smoke coming out) when i rev the engine.

Need advice from the experienced on what really happen to the engine and what should i tackle first to get it at least okay to be used. My budget is not more than 2k currently (as I just started working) and I plan to set it to stock condition because I travel from selangor - melaka regularly.

Thank you and appreciate any comment & advice.

hi bro,

is the car stock?

how is the car idling? does it hunt up and down?

the jerking part , could be faulty fuel pump,faulty spark plugs, faulty sensor (maf,02)., bad plug cables...

for the smoke,coming out from which manifold bro? intake or exhaust?
