Yes pretty simple, put the original airbox on, if the problem has been cured, then chuck your K&N in the bin (for example)! | |

God. It's a 5 minute job to put the airbox back on so why not do that and see what happens! | |

I was also told it might just be because its a 1.0 litre and only has 3 cylinders! Does anyone with a 1.0 litre find there engine shakes more than normal? The revs drop to bout 300rpm when I dip the clutch as well, like its gonna cut out! I was told that was cos of the K&N! | |

Well since I put it on it aint been running smoothly so its the only thing I can think of! I thought the induction kit takes in more air, meaning the mixture of petrol and air would be different to what is set up on the ECU, so the engine would be running lean? I'm not mechanically minded so correct me if Im wrong. | |

I don't know exactly what problems you're having but theres no way a fucking induction kit is gonna make everything shake all over the place! :lol: | |

They weren't bullshitting! U can tell by the way the whole engine is shakin when u lift the bonnet up! I have to admit I need to get stronger rubber mounts but I don't think it should be shaking as much as it is! | |

The induction kit won't cause the exhaust to shake as badly as you describe. Take it back to powerflow and tell them to stop bullshitting you. | |

Ever since I put my K&N Induction Kit on my 1.0 litre it aint been runnung properly! I've tried resetting my ECU by disconnecting the battery for an hour or so but nothings changed! |
