Dazzi Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 You can reset the ECU by disconnecting the battery for about 10 mins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robin Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Taking out the fuse or battery with both do it, the advantage of the fuse method is your clock and headunit etc wont loose thier settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzi Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 02 sensors need replacing? Need to clean airfilter? Replace fuel filter - could be blocked? Spark plugs ok?, dizzy cap or rotor arm might need replacing, coil packs could be bad too. Personally I would change the lot, I did Also try a different fuel brand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I've looked at two of your threads now and both are bordering on illegible, can you please put some effort into what you type otherwise a lot of people who could help simply won't bother spending the time and effort needed to decipher what you are saying. Thank you. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drnas78 Posted May 29, 2008 Author Share Posted May 29, 2008 Hi there, I've put some fuel cleaner in and also reset the ECU, doesnt seem to have made much diffrence. I think i will get a dignostic done instead of changeing loads of things best get the diagnostics done first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 There are loads of reasons why a car might be down on power. Seized brakes? Timing belt out or slipped a tooth? Valves need adjusting? Fuelling is way out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drnas78 Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 Thank you every one, i will get guy at the garage to run a check and also tune car up as its been year or so since last Tune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
