Hey Guy's
Just had my aunty drop around with a struggling car, she said she nearly ran out of fuel, then the "engine management" light came on (that is labelled as exhaust something") now its running "lumpy"
Got it plugged in straight away pointing towards a misfire, possible fuelling issue, cleared the code going to change the fuel filter tomorrow put some injector cleaner through it and give it a good old thrape through the field see if it clears the system out.
(picture screenshot was too big for the site)
p3000
that was the only code it threw at me so I was quite pleased.
Just In Case, anything else you guys reckon it could be?
injector, coilpack spark plug etc, I will probably change the sparks anyway just to be safe.
started her up and went for a test drive.
It is rubbish
2k rev's put the foot to the floor and it stutters and wants to cough (like putting foot on floor at 800revs in 6th gear in a diesel)
I plan to change the spark plugs and do another diagnostic once I have the vehicle back.
Any idea's about this? very strange feels like it has no power...
praying its not a clogged injector or fuel pump :o!
