Thanks to Hippo and MarkWizard for the suggestions and advice in the "Stuck with Freelander..." thread. Rather than continuing to piggyback, i decided to start my own thread.
I mentioned I was ordering a MAF unit to see if it fixes the problems. Well, I installed it and it made no difference. To date I've replaced the spark plugs and both (fore and aft of catalytic converter) oxygen sensors.
I've read where a broken intake manifold can cause some of the problems I'm having, including rattling engine noises (loss of power at speed, rough running/idling, smell of rich exhaust, transmission shifting prematurely, staying too long in lower gears and rough shifting, especially while cold).
Is anyone familiar with this issue? I'm contemplating ordering the manifold. But do you know of a repair for it in lieu of replacement?
Thank you in advance.
