Much worse mate. On a flat road once its moving it not too bad. Setting off or show it a hill, and it drives like a moped.

Does anyone in south\west yorkshire have any diagnostic kit and would be prepared to have a look at my rangie pls? I'm struggling to find someone who knows what they're on about. Cheers

No marks on it at all. I've spaced it anyway just to try it and there's no difference. Oyher possibilities coul be coil pack? Inlet manifold? Any thoughts? Thanks very much to all who have replied

That thought did occur to me. However its running like a bag of spanners and its passed its mot today with flying colours. If the cat was blocked or collapsed I would have thought it would be reflected on emissions? Ill have a gander anyways. Thanks

I've had crank sensor off. There isn't a spacer on it at all. Where did you put your spacer? Thanks jon

Cheers mate. I will have a look and hopefully report all is well

Thanks for that. Any idea of anyone who may be able to help? I loved the car when it was right and I don't want to get rid but mot due and I need a car. The lr indy I took it to said there were no faults logged

Hi all, I really hope someone can help as I'm at my wits end. I went laning a few weeks ago and half way through the day my 1996 p38 4.6, started sounding rough, lacking power and backfiring. I later found out the exhaust manifold was cracked and it was replaced. However, the problem persisted...
