pugbliss 0 Posted July 24, 2007 Hey all, Over say the past weekor so the pug has seemingly started to lose power when you try to accelerate and sounds a bit rough too. so ive replaced the following... cam belt and tesionor. spark plugs. leads. roter arm. oil plus filter cleaned air filter (k&n) the only other things i think it could be are dizzy cap coil ignition module. what do you all think???? cheers joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smigzy 0 Posted July 24, 2007 I was losing power and it turned out that one of the injectors was loose and pulling in air. Spray a bit of carb cleaner over them with the engine running. If the revs change, then there's your problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

large 33 Posted July 25, 2007 I was down on power on a gti-6 turned out to be the head gaskit have you done a compression test? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gti-si 0 Posted July 28, 2007 Check your ignition timing is correctly set up and is'nt retarded, although they don't usuaally reatrd themselves . Give it a good check over for air leaks. I'd put it on a gas analyser aswell and have the mixture checked out. Are the injectors spraying freely etc? And as jack says, check the fuel filter out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey S 29 1 Cars Posted July 28, 2007 check that the mechanical advance in the dizzy is working as well. if its seized they do go flat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
