no I haven't.....and altec you have voiced an idea I have been pondering for a while i.e. whether my stutter is a result of faulty coil pack or pump. But I, a while a'back swapped all 4 packs with a fellow 2NR and gave the car some good "press out" which, with my packs, would present the stutter. Howver this was not the case and the car pulled through the rpm range in the various gears smoothly.........So I gain some solace in that test......plus whenever I feel the "hold back" and hear the "packs packs" sound from the engine, I see in my rearview some lil clouds of black smoke....which translates to unburnt fuel.....which I infer to be as a result of inadequate spark.
