Title: running problems
Post by: mud4brains on September 08, 2007, 21:07:40
my vitara has started to play up abit, bear in mind its a 2.0 turbo diesel, will drive fine and then when i have worked the engine hard, like up a long hill or something and it stays at the same speed and sounds abit missfirey, then i let the gas off for abit and then drives fine

sound to me like fuel starvation, so changed filter and still happens

what do ya think guys??? :cry:

cheers

If you tried the air filter try the fuel cap off just in case of a blocked breather,make sure there is no crimped lines underneith. If all that fails then try some diesel cleaner that might help BUT if that fails take it to a diesel specialist for injectors to be tested and the pumpas well. Hope this helps.  :)
