familyman 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2006 My car seemed to start spluttering as if running out of fuel. It got better for a couple of days then gradually got worse until it ran roughly all the time. But (would you believe it) when I was taking it to my mechanic it ran like a dream so he couldn't work out went wrong. My fuel consumption improved by about 100kms per tank full. Everything sweet. Until now when it stopped completely. It will start easily but it seems like not enough petrol is getting through to run it. I replaced fuel filter and fuel pump in the hope I didn't have to get it towed(by a tow truck$$$$) to mechanic and pay through the nose to get it fixed. But damn, the gamble didn't pay off. Has this happened to anyone else ??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Andrew Report post Posted August 2, 2006 Would do a logical troubleshoot first: Check ignition, fuel, MAF signals, Crank Angle signals etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whats involved with cleaning injectors. I would imagine getting to them and getting them out will be the most difficult part ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
