Hi All,
As the subject indicates, having a bit of drama with the old girl. On starting the ute, if I go to take off without a warm up, it effectively stalls and blows a considerable puff of black smoke as they do.
If I let it warm up, it will go but is really down on power/rpm and then gets up and going.
On a hill on a cold day or with a camper trailer on, forget it. Get the winch out.
Today I got the gear wrong turning a corner up a hill (2nd) and when I dropped back to first, the revs sit at about 900 RPM and even with foot flat it just struggles to get the RPM up. Just crawls up he hill and then slowly picks up.
No issues starting it or anything like that.
Any ideas? I am thinking dribbly injector or maybe a blocked injector? I have run a heap of cleaner through but no change.
Thanks
