Hi gents.
(Car is a 1991 8501 with 65,400 miles.)
* Note Over past 6 weeks only used the car on Sundays for 30 miles ...
Am experiencing power surging after starting the car I drive off down a long slope say for a mile, and I am getting surging between 700 rpm to 1500 rpm intermitantly, in traffic the surging continues (same rpm).
When on the motorway and after 2000 rpm everything normal with 20 miles per gallon consumption.
Then when slowing down in traffic and behind slower cars at 700-1000rpm the surging continues, at lights etc and on down gradient slopes at low speed and then when in reverse to park a rough idle and sometimes the engine cuts out with a small yellow light coming on the dash...
1. Should I do a stomp test ..or would this be a waste
2. Did a coast down procedure last weekend when I noticed this and it didnt help.
Should I repeat the coast down check, anything I should look at before I take the car in to the dealer as this seems a technical problem not sure if I should trust the Mwrench with this ?/
Is it safe to keep driving it ...?
Cheers
