hello everybody assistance required please.
i have just become the owner of a 2000 x reg freelander 1.8i.
i picked the car up from sheffield and set off back to teeside everything was fine. after 10 minutes of driving i had a sudden loss of power it would tickover as normal but as soon as i touched the accelerator it would cut out or would not rev smoothly. after leaving the car for a couple of minutes it would start and behave normally for a minute then do the same. i eventually got onto the a1 and found if i kept the revs high it would drive ok so having reached 70mph on the a1 i drove 80miles without a hitch but as soon as i let the engine revs drop low it lost power again. i have been in it again today and drove ok for 10 minutes then did the same thing again.
any ideas would be very appreciated.
thanks.
