Problem

21st July 2010, 09:14

Right well, i swapped my blackberry for a little P reg saxo. 70,000 miles, tax and mot. However there is a slight problem. When going up hills, every so often it will start to judder like you a stalling and then give the full hp. Am wondering what could this be. Also it only happens when the petrol gauge goes on orange light.

Could be crud in the tank - try not running it on the fuel light!

It happens when off fuel light too.

When was the car last serviced?

Always a good idea when you get a car to give a good going over - fluids, filters, plugs with a dose of injector cleaner!

Not a clue, just done oil and filter. Tbh I aint recovering it from slums. Am just using it for 8months until my insurance renewal, yeah ill do necessities but nothing more. Horse jumped on front wing and scratched door, was gunna by front wing but fuck it. Waiting for my furio. Then sell it back to my friend for 350.

Could be anything, dodgy injector / sparkplug, coilpack, throttle body issue e.g. one of the many sensors plugged into it dirty / on the way out (Most likely the MAP sensor), possible partial blockage of fuel filter, and more.

Bit more specific about the problem such as under which circumstances it occurs e.g under acceleration/ cruising / idling etc. would help.

Try not to get too shirty with people, givin people attitude won't go down too well here on sax-p, especially if you're the one asking for help!

Also, your car got mauled by a horse? I would have loved to have seen that.
