RyanML Posted February 16, 2010 Author Share Posted February 16, 2010 theres an intermittent power problem with my car, some days she revs free'er than others... Which effects the speed a fair whack, thought it was a block in the exhaust but my exhaust has been checked and theres no blockage there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Lots of things can cause this. Bad sensor, wiring fault, endless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawdreamer Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 how can i find out whats wrong? Either learn the operating and test process for everything on the car or give it to someone qualified........ unfortunetly the most likely outcome and probably the wiser of your options...... HOWEVER! someone recently suffered a power problem and as Ive seen countless symptoms caused by the Lambda bein fecked I suggested checking its function before paying out for a autosparkie. simple one to do, just unplug it and see if the issue go's away, plug for it is directly above the radiator.... if it aint the cause least it doesnt cost you feckall to check it.
