hi i have recently got my hands on a mint condition 2.9xr 4x4 , if i drive car straight away after starting her she hickups badly, but if i leave it ticking over for a few minutes its fine, also occassionaly owt on the road it feels like it dies for a split second and then is fine again.
i changed the plugs the other week with no success, any help would be much obliged

try vaccum pipes, poss leak? also ht leads may be on way out. spray all leads with wd40 inc coil ht & lt leads, if this tempararly, cures it replace or secure wiring . check all wiring for wear or loosness on ignition.hope it helps.

 

Make sure the plug gaps are right.I did a scopio V6 years ago with a missfire and one of the new plugs wasnt gapped properly.

 

cheers for ideas ive tried all that , a mate of mine told me it could be the air flow meters ??
