right the problem is now, voltage goes right up, idiling in neutral is fine, in drive etc it cuts out, idles too low, and if u try and drive it, its very sluggish, and wont change up, and fuel consumption is bad, then if i run it for 10mins, switch it off, then its fine. Then few hours later it wil do it again!

Your questions if they are questions are all jumbled.

sorry lol, here are the symptoms. Engine tries 2 cut out in drive. Fuel pump very noisy. Lacks power. Struggles 2 change up. Exhaust goes quieter and no poping and banging. But it only does this first drive of the day, very rarely continues after the first drive. Think it could be the fuel system?

it could be anything from the ignition timing to fuel pressure reg for example. Your going to have to work through the list from before on your last thread.

forget the auto gearbox from the equation at the moment.


also remember previous issues ie your injector plug and afm

If it only runs rough at the first drive, I wouldn't rule out damp in the dizzy.
