non running series 2
Hi Guys,
Can someone advise if possible as to the reasons why my car will not run.
I have had an issue with my car for around a year now with the issue being lack of acceleratuion above 50 in 3rd gear.
The car appears to boost to around 10psi and then gives up the ghost.
After speaking with a specialist and driving all the way there they advised a new clutch. I purchased an AP clutch and installed it with the issue still at large.
I got the car back form the garage and it appeared to have an over heating issue.
I noticed the fans were not working and changed the fuse however the car is still running extremely hot.
A week later I took the car to the garage again as this time the car would not start after travelling 5 mins down the road.
A new starter motor was purchased and fitted.
The car now does not start as it shut down on me whilst driving casually.
Again the car is in the garage with it appearing to be starving itself of petrol.
The garage took the air filter off and noticed that the metering unit flap (sorry not a mechanic)! was pissed (technical term)
I hope to hear from them tomorrow as to what I need to do to get my car up and running again, however I would like to hear from people who may have an idea of what's going on.
