I have just put a Dbilas throttle body on a C16XE and it revs fine when not being driven.
On the road it will only take three quarters throttle and then build up to full throttle.
If I put my foot down to full throttle it has no power and just slows down until I let off to three quarter throttle and then accelerates again.
Is this a fuel problem?
I have the standard regulator fitted.

It's the single plenum Dbilas and have changed the throttle body from the C16XE one to the X16XE one to make it fit.
The Air Flow Meter is still connected and is fairly new.

It's flashing up fault code 68 which is Airflow Sensor (sensor frequency).
Does this mean the AFM is knackered.
