I've previously checked the TPS and it seems ok, well within the ranges, may need a little adjustment to make it exact. Think its just over the 5000 rpm mark.
Think I've made some head way.
A mate said to try a compression test on the cylinders. All cylinders are coming in very low, about 2/3rds down on compression around 4kg/cm2 instead of 12 to 15kg/cm2
To me this is corresponding to the carbs when i tried balanced them and they were also coming in at a lower range to the books.
If this is the valves/piston rings has anyone else had these done recently? I will check out all the other suggestions as well first, but looking at how much a garage will charge to fix this?
Would like to do it myself to save the labor charges but the girlfriend won't be happy with me being in the garage for a week or two.
Wondering if its worth fixing or moving on to something else. Cheers
Previously checked the TPS?
When?
Because you're describing everything that happens when they start to fail.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
