Hi, thought I would start a new thread for this... Got a few more problems.. but i have fixed so much on the car it seems like it'd be worth fixing it some more.. but not sure..
So far I have done:
- head gasket (new)
- water pump (new)
- brake rotors, pads and bleeding (new)
- tyres (new)
- spark plugs, leads and a coil (new)
- Throttle position sensor (from wrecker)
- distributor, cap and rotor (wreckers)
- headlights (new)
- alternator (wrecker + new brushes)
I have already changed alternators once, but again my alternator is no longer charging.. luckily i have a beast of a battery, I can drive for weeks on that lol.. just headlights are a bit dim at night!
The other problem is that when I accelerate or try to, the engine stutters, like it is misfiring every second cylinder and the revs hardly increase... this is really bad on hills!! Sometimes if i kick it down (its an auto), it will actually work.. I beleive I've had this problem before!! Possibly distributor or cap related.. possibly TPS.. but I never really narrowed it down!
http://stuff.pw.cx/panto%20issues.MOVHave a look at the above video - after the second time i indicate, i am going up a hill with throttle more than half way! It's quite bad.. Nothing has really changed recently, this started as an intermittent fault but now is becoming quite regular !
Any tips would be appreciated!!!
